Baby Boomers

[acmanko]

As a member of this esteemed generation I would like to let the other generations,i.e. Gen X, slackers, WW11, and the newbies, know that I will get what I want and its up to you to pay for it. We have gotten what we want when we wanted it, even demanded it. So, if you fall into one of the others groups, buckle up and start paying more, because I got wants that I don't even know about yet.

Well Eric, one day people of your generation will get drunk and posted stupid crap on the Internet like Mankow.

AC drinks?

[tonys]

if not,
he should Start Drink'n.

[acmanko]

Well not today, but I have been known to drink every once in a while. But seriously, you younger people are just going to have to realize that it's going to cost you to take care of us as we age. somewhere in the neighborhood of 20% of wages, unless that Idiot in the White House keps going on about privatization of SS, then you'll be looking at 25%

Privatization is the only thing that will save it. It is nothing but a pyramid scheme anyway thought up to defraud the taxpayers by the democrats. You started something like this and they would lock you up. And coupled with that grand old other system called welfare, I would say that means a serious lack of funding. I don't expect you to understand any of this though because you are nuttier than squirrel poop.

There is no SS fund account, that is another lie.

Hey "Boomer" what's with the tude? You looking for moral debate concerning the transfer of wealth by govnmt from one person to another? IMO, it is wrong for government to be in the business of robbing -80 to pay acmanko. Turning to government to solve all your problems simply takes power from the people and GIVES it to the government. I personnaly believe you or anyone else is not entitled to MY or anyone elses income.

Well James and guru, I'm sorry but the law is the Law and SS is the law, personalyI don't need it, I have a fat savings account,tax free, but I will get what's mine and you younger generations are going to pay out the proverbial Ass. Get used to it.

And once again, the government passed bad law because nobody had enough balls to say, "This isn't the governments job."

Hey acmanko you get used to paying taxes on the SS payments you get because of your fat account. BTW if you don,t need it, then put your money where your mouth is and not file for SS when the time comes.

[acmanko]

Oh no, I'm entitled to it, and I'll get all that's due, thank you.

If you have so much money, you should get rid of that furnature you got at the flea market.
