Well Damn Marc, Here I am waiting for all this socalisim to kick in where I will be able to sit back and wait for the money to roll in! You mean I will have to work for my supper! Oh sorry, sing for my supper. Yep folks, as good as some things sound, there is STILL no free lunch. Can't wait for that High Speed Rail to Hawaii!!! Well, back to the Salt Mines. Im a believer in capitalism, but there are some cases where socialism works. Are you collecting Social Security Ray? Well there ya have it. In actuality, I dont think that it is working. The govts unfunded liabilities are so high that if anything ever undoes the governments ability to sell IOUs (borrow). there will not be any real money there to pay for anything. In my life, I have never seen anything having to do with finances that looked real real wrong, yet did not have a day of reckoning. The national debt looks real real wrong. I return you to the prior broadcast. Something about song publishing. in reality social security is a ponzi scheme. But I dont know anybody, socialist or capitalist, Republican or Democrat, who doesnt like getting a payment when they retire. And its not a payment they saved for themselves. Its a goverment dispursement. Very much socialism. Most people if they didnt HAVE to pay social security wouldnt save it and wouldnt have it. So it is a case where socialism works. Whether its fair or not is another story
