    Well maybe, but why should I have a moral obligation to an old man who wasted his money on whiskey and whores instead of saving?
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Yes, poor people have only themselves to blame for their situation.

    Try to be a little lees stereotypical... And doing this through taxes does ensure that everyone does save money for retirement, ya know.

    Why don't they have (wait here it comes, a GOP buzzword) a little personal responsibility. Though it may be code for hating poor people it still stands.

    What seems to be slipping people's minds is that social security IS going to fail. what needs to be done is it has to be either scrapped or phased out so it isnt a shock when it actually happens.

    That is opinion based upon your own bias that government cant handle anything, therefor anything broken will become irreparable. I'm getting tired of modern day conservatives spouting their talking points as facts.

    Obama is a socialist/communist/fascist, that is fact based upon the polices he has implemented.
    Free market is always better then the government, that is fact based upon history (as long as you forget police, firemen,..etc). I'm getting tired of an intelligent discussion coming back down to right wing talking points regurgitated over and over again. I have little patience for someone who insinuates that our lovable leftist HoreTore could in anyway not be fervent in free speech because of what those "bad" progressives are doing. That's compensating for bad logic and reasoning by insulting a person's (created strawman) ideology in general and applying it to an individual to disarm/discredit him and get cheap debate advantages.

    Why I bother with the backroom....

    An easy thing to say for the middle class.

    Not that easy to say when your single mom was a junkie and you're still mentally unstable because you got raped by three 40-year olds at age 9.
