"Congratulations to the Republicans. They did what I truly never believed could be done. They wrecked this state and others; they obstructed our duly elected president; they voted against veterans and women and students and poor and immigrants and workers and climate change and the environment and progress. They stripped away civil liberties, women's rights to control their own bodies, and the right to be paid on an equal basis. They cut funding to education and social services and the CDC. They gave away billions to profitable corporations. They allowed corporate America to poison our water, contaminate our food, and to destroy our land through fracking. They voted more than 50 times to take away the healthcare that many of us waited forever to get. They refused to act on immigration and climate change and a jobs bill. They kept hundreds of thousands of legal voters off voter registrations, and reduced opportunities to vote. For all of this and more, they were rewarded with both chambers of Congress, and many state races. When things get worse, and they will, I hope those who voted for more of the same remember why they're getting it. And when they don't, please direct them to me. I'll be more than happy to remind them. I think I'll go vomit now."

What will be interesting to see is if Hillary will start trashing the B.O. administration in her run for POTUS based on the results of this mid-term elections.

A great metric as in that neither of these programs are sustainable. Even the federal government admits that they are not. So you improve the standard of living for people now at the expense of destroying the standard of living for people in the future. Sorry, but that doesn't look to me like a "great metric" or something that other programs should be modeled after.

The_Noble_Cause wrote:Critics have been saying that since these programs came into existence. Solvency is a minor issue. For starters, the income cap on Social Security taxes needs to be raised. Why isn't annual income above 117k subject to payroll taxes? Of course, we have unlimited resources when it comes to warfare. It's only welfare that is the convenient whipping boy for the GOP to exploit racial tensions. It is an old argument. Welfare or warfare. Guns vs butter. Healthcare vs hellfire missiles. You choose. As Ron Paul recently tweeted: Republican control of the Senate = expanded neocon wars. Great job, guys!
Both programs will experience cost growth substantially in excess of GDP growth through the mid-2030s due to rapid population aging caused by the large baby-boom generation entering retirement and lower-birth-rate generations entering employment and, in the case of Medicare, to growth in expenditures per beneficiary exceeding growth in per capita GDP.

I would agree with this. If your income is as such that you do not need SS benefits to cover your living expenses, then you should not receive it.

Boomchild wrote:Solvency has everything to do with whether the program is good or bad. I wouldn't call the trusties of Social Security "critics". SS is funded by specific tax dollars deducted from working people's wages. So spending in other areas of government does not effect it. That funding would not be deposited into the SS program anyway. Of course the progressive Democrat answer to the problem is to tax the working population more. Although, the SS trusties have pointed out that is not "the cure" since due to lower birth rates there will not be enough taxes raised to support those receiving benefits.
The_Noble_Cause wrote:Social Security is solvent through 2038. Even after that date it can pay around 80% of its benefits. If the 100k income cap was done away with, the program would be solvent for 70 years. The last President to cut a deal and extend the program was Ronald Reagan. Nowadays, modern Republicans like you ('cuz that's what you are, despite your phony Libertarian posturing) just bitch, whine, and propagate the lies of the Cato institute and anti-social security crusaders like Wall Street billionaire Peter Peterson. You have no solutions. You just hate the government, and apparently hold a grudge against your grandparents for pinching your cheeks to hard. Social Security isn't going anywhere. It will most likely outlive every member of this forum.

Boomchild wrote:Your simple answer is to tax people more. Which is the only solution progressive Democrats have in their toolbox. A better choice could be letting people keep the money they earn and have them invest it. They would more then likely get a better return then being taxed and not even being sure that they will receive a benefit back for doing so.

I believe that the majority don't want these issues fixed, they want them stopped.
Executive action on immigration all hell is going to break loose.
You do realize that the Pubbies now hold 70 of the 98 State Legislatures and 31 Governors Mansions along with the largest ever in History US House Majority don't you? The Clintons have completely lost Arkansas, the WHOLE DAM STATE was voted Pubbie on Tuesday, completely Republican. I think you are seriously over estimating Hillarys popularity, especially among women.
BTW, the "Republican, current direction" just resulted in what quite a few pundits called an "ass whoopin', wave, landslide, shellacking and Nuclear Explosion."
Now you're telling us we need to change in order to win. Hilarious
next you're going to tell us we need to go to DC and "work together",, no thanks, we tried that only to have The Won say, "I Won", and proceed to have the Dems (who were in complete control) shove unpopular legislation, most notably Ocare down our throats. I'm hoping the new crew returns the favor.

Veteran benefits is a different subject. One the problems with SS is that benefits are being paid to those that never paid into it. It shouldn't have been designed that way.
Either that or have your SS payments based on what your income or net worth is upon retirement.
