Social Security is not a good subject to fight over. It will not be around long enough to worry about it. Many other countries have tried it, many have failed. What makes USA any different? The fact that USA harbors and feeds half of the world's population and never gets a thank you? That does not sound like much help is it?
Well, then maybe the "Anchor Babies" of illegal aliens will help. Oh wait, they draw from Social Security. Maybe the Identity Thieves. Shit, they rob us too. Ok, USA, let's just save money. Bummer, dollar is loosing value. Our savings will not be having much buying power if this continues. Investing makes good sense, but what about tax hikes? (Hillary is all for those) With property and business taxes rising, it's been hard to stay above surface.
Guys and Gals, let's face it. Sweet times are not very likely at this time. If we work until we die, will do fine. If we sprog, we will be in a bad situation. I hope none of us will have to discover how to pay for college and buy them clothing - I suspect it will not be easy. And no, Social Security will not be much help - it is already drained. Having kids at this time is a big risk and a suggestion of a crappy life to the young ones. Let's make it easier and do not.
As far as breeders go, they are clueless. CF contribute more to society than anyone gives them credit for. I know of an older CF couple who will donate their estate to cancer research upon their departure. How is that not helping? Many other CF have donated their time, money and energy to causes for public good. Next time a breeder comes down with some sickness, maybe they should wonder who gave the most to medical research. It were not people with kids.
