No problem.Truth is that these posts of mine may appear cruel and seem irresponsible but doing the same insanity over and over is what is actually cruel and irresponsible. Every 75 years or so, America crumbles and then has a rebirth that makes the ensuing decades better (until we become compliant again that is). 1787-89: The nation was built with our Constiution and Bill of Rights to replace the failed setup under the Articles of Confederation. Things were good for a while, people around the world were inspired, then it all went to hell because of slavery and 19th century teabaggery. 1861-1870: Civil War and Reconstruction Amendments to the Constitution Again that trauma made the nation better and the country moved foward and embraced the Industrial Revolution in stride. Then everyone got greedy, compliant and stupid. 1929-1945: Great Depression and WW2 Again, one of our worst times that however eventually led to something better later thanks to those traumas themselves. Then we forgot again...as usual. So here were are now. Would a default and downgrading suck big time? Absolutely. But it's the only way we can make things better for future generations. By starting over and prioritizing. The party is over. Our generation is shot but the shock of what's about to happen is what is needed to bring some common sense and lucidity to the whole thing. As you all can see, I'm not happy that we got to this point but doing something about it now is the only way to stop the folly. The only way the parties will do anything meaningful is if the unspeakable happens. As with Washington, Lincoln and FDR before him, Barack Obama is uniquely suited to get us through the harsh realities that await us whether one likes him or not. |

I agree with your entire post, except the last sentence. Unfortunately, I don't think Obama has the ability to lead in this. I think Clinton could have done it, Reagan could have (and I know you hate him), but I don't think Obama is suited (although, that said, i don't think Bush would have been suited either). |

Stated policy already is that medicare will either be privatized or vouchered, they're absolutely firm on that. And social security will be pushed off past 70, no COLA and benefits reduced. You really ought to look into the crap they're selling. See the article about what Moody's is doing. Banks get paid, NO social security checks at all ... |

Why because I am not drinking what you are presenting? Sure, I'm the good little boy if I just agree with the propaganda. Social Security and Medicare are the first things that will be paid. It's been a propaganda campaign by Obama and people like you to scare the hell out of seniors and others that are on SS to ensure they would drink the kool aid. And now of course I am a horse's ass for not drinking it. Come on, even you can't be that over the edge at this point. |

Politicians tend to get religion quickly when they see their colleagues booted out of office for messing with those programs.Why do you think they opposed them in the first place? Same with Obamacare which will become another sacred cow. The GOP can't even bring itself to allow a year to go by without doing the Medicare "doc fix" even though they were the ones who insisted on those cuts in the 90's. Never implemented except for the first couple of years. They went out the window once Bush was installed. None of their proposed cuts are to be taken seriously. It's why we need either a default or a downgrading. At that point, politicians would have to make real decisions and I can assure you that it's not gonna be Medicare that goes. people still vote. Even Teabaggers have said in recent polls that there will be hell to pay if "government puts its hands on their Medicare". The only thing GOP politicos care more than their ideology is their jobs. |

There's quite a gulf between what the people think (and the ascendancy of teabaggers proves that they will buy into what they're fed, in sufficient numbers to elect enough of them in enough parts of the country) and what the republicans' agenda is. Too bad you can't see that they don't care....Karl Rove proved that all you need do is sell some fear (and have a few choice corporations in your pocket to assist) to get re-elected. So their ideology trumps all. They can readily get around the rest. The people be damned, and they will be. |
