The State Of The Union Address

"Prosecuted Corporate Criminals".... you mean like Martha Stewart and Tommy Chong? What happened to Kenneth Lay?
 
I see Laura Bush is looking rather "fembot"ish tonight. I'd give her $100 dollars if she took that smirk of her face for 5 seconds....
 
Get rid of social programs.... give tax cuts to wealthy.... I'm shocked.
 
What about the missing trillions? What happened to that money? Why isn't it in Social Security?
 
Privatizing Social Security? Isn't that what 401k's and IRA's are for?

I don't understand how giving everyone more money for retirement (by greater interest paid out for private accounts) would lessen the deficit. Am I missing something?

I'm the wrong person to talk to about money... I'm a fiscal retard.
 
I think it's funny when the former governor of Death-Penalty-Happy Texas talks about "our country's compassion"
 
I'm not watching ... and reading this, I'm glad. I think it would just gross me out to see and hear that man spewing this crap.

*ugh* marriage, deficiate, health care, taking over the planet!!!! ugh I say!

that's it folks, I'm moving to guam. I'm due for a tan anyway ...
 
After watching this, I may need yoga to clear my mind from W's garbage....

From Someone Who Knows... My Dad

Me: What would your comment be to this?

My Dad: what

Me: Privatizing Social Security? Isn't that what 401k's and IRA's are for?

I don't understand how giving everyone more money for retirement (by greater interest paid out for private accounts) would lessen the deficit. Am I missing something?

My Dad: Yes, By allowing individuals to save privately, there is a better chance for them to accumulate more funds for retirement. If you take the idea of 2,000 a year for 40 years, you would have over $1,000,000 that would give the person $50,000 a year at 5%, or much more than social security. The only difference is the disability coverage.

Me: Disability coverage for what?

My Dad: Like ***** was sick and couldn't work. He got money, etc...

Me: Would that be gone with this initiative?

My Dad: yes

Me: How do you know? He didn't say that...

My Dad: Because if you are not putting into the system, they don't have money to pay out.

Me: Ok... thanks
