Your solution is to punish the law-abiding first. Not too prudent.

You have no idea what my solution is. I haven't offered it. In #9, I merely observed the following facts:

1) Medicare and Social Security are socialist programs.

2) All (essentially) Americans are caught up in and victimized by these programs.

3) These programs must end.

Point #3 isn't a matter of policy. It's a matter of fact. These programs WILL end whether we like it or not.

Now ... you want to talk solutions? I have some ideas, I'm sure you do too. Any real solutions must recognize that every penny of Social Security and Medicare tax collected from the inception of these programs to the present day is already spent. The money is gone. Any funds allocated to compensate us must come either from taxation or the sale of assets.

How about we just set off our nuclear arsenal all around the world and leave note to avoid socialism to the survivors?
