I know...I despise these elitist Washington insiders who tell us we have to keep spending our way into bankruptcy and running up more federal debt or else the sky will fall. What a load of BS. It's all the excessive spending and the ongoing social security and Medicare Ponzi schemes that are wrecking our economy. We cannot continue to pay out much more in social security and medicare benefits than our people pay into these systems in taxes. It doesn't work financially...obviously that leads to huge exploding deficits.

We have to start cutting entitlement benefits for affluent retirees and start NOW! We don't care if that makes if harder for elitist insiders like Reid, Pelosi, Hoyer, and McCain to get reelected. We don't care if the seniors get bothered by economic truth and reality. Entitlement spending has to be cut now and if that makes it harder for liberals to be reelected, if that bothers the idiots at moveon.org, I DON'T CARE! Start cutting benefits for affluent retirees now. Start by calculating how much people paid into the system and how much they've received in benefits, and start cutting back the benefits for people with high incomes who have received much more than they paid into the system. That's fair and right, whereas tax increases on working people and risk-taking investors and the stealth tax of higher inflation are not fair to younger Americans.
