Pensions and good health care are much more appealing than they were 10, 20, 30 years ago. Hard to give that stuff up now.

Yep, pretty much what I'm saying... - Carla Beefcurtain (Warriors Superfan since 1984) 2012-06-06 23:51:46 (61 views)

Social security and Medicare have the same problem. - Dick Nikon 2012-06-07 00:19:06 (62 views)

Lift the $110K ceiling on SS (or restart it at 250K) and SS becomes solvent for 75 years. - BackseatGM 2012-06-07 10:12:39 (44 views)

GOP doesn't want a solvent SS - CARTIERFROHAWK 2012-06-07 18:27:44 (44 views)

Yeah, I never really understood that ceiling. - Earl j. Slick 2012-06-07 11:30:00 (39 views)

I believe it was put in to defend against charges of socialism - Max 2012-06-07 13:20:34 (33 views)

SS is simple math. Medicare is a much more difficult problem. - Dick Nikon 2012-06-07 10:27:20 (38 views)

But national health care works fine in other countries. Plenty of models to choose from. - BackseatGM 2012-06-07 11:32:36 (43 views)

I'm hoping that "Obamacare" was breaking the seal, and now health care reform reform will happen - fanofnothing 2012-06-07 14:21:42 (44 views)

that's exactly why the right is dead-set on repealing it - Max 2012-06-07 14:36:53 (35 views)

It's not just the leadership - it some members - Jim Barnett 2012-06-06 23:25:58 (67 views)

Ugghhh, that sucks. Interesting article though, thanks. - Carla Beefcurtain (Warriors Superfan since 1984) 2012-06-06 23:58:41 (57 views)

Well, that article said nothing at all. - Earl j. Slick 2012-06-06 19:54:11 (69 views)

Aren't they? - Earl j. Slick 2012-06-06 19:54:55 (66 views)

Well if they are then the are stupid - Hoser 2012-06-06 20:24:25 (60 views)

Disagree. Everybody should. How to implement this, that is the problem. - nomad 2012-06-06 21:59:50 (59 views)

yeah, well, let me know how that is working out for all the aging countries, like Japan - DC Warrior 2012-06-07 08:37:27 (52 views)

So we should set our goals as low as possible? That way they'll be easy to attain. - nomad 2012-06-07 19:54:47 (34 views)

what goal are you talking about? The right to work until 55 and not have to work thereafter? - DC Warrior 2012-06-08 06:20:59 (43 views)

Essentially. - nomad 2012-06-08 23:18:44 (37 views)
