2. When you look at the budget that is where most of our spendng will be.
Edited on Mon Dec-20-10 07:17 AM by dkf
It doesn't really matter if it funds itself or not, the fact is that the majority of the taxes we need to collect will go towards our elderly and the majority of the effort our Government focuses on will be on people who are finished working.

It is nice to be able to provide for your elderly, but that isn't money invested in the future of this country, not on educating the scientists of the future, nor in building the infrastructure...nothing that helps us keep up with the rest of the world.

It's not even focused on helping the poor working class.
