[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 746719, member: 22662"] Now Av, you've lost your touch. We were actually getting to what I've wanted to know all along and you ran away from your own position. To be honest with you I believe the whole social security fiasco is a generational battle waiting to happen. I'm 42 years old and have no belief whatsoever it will be there at age 70. I don't think it's left vs right on this one, it's old vs. young. For 30 years there's been a sacred cow called social security because of one thing: the older generations vote. What if when my generation comes into political power, say in the next 15 years, we just get rid of it. It's simply not "sustainable". Imagine how fast the national debt could be wiped out. I'm pragmatic about these things. My question was an honest one. How does the right run on the platform of getting rid of social security? [/QUOTE]
