These are the same excuses that we hear when it comes to reforming Social Security. Face it people, the Democrats think they know how to spend your money better than you. And time and again we let them because of the promised goods or services we will receive. Health care coverage for all, yet at what cost???? Long wait times for treatment, limits to treatment available, you name it.
Cradle to grave protection with social security, yes folks that's right, give the government you money and you will earn you 1.8% interest so that you can receive that monthly check for $1258. If only that went into even a savings account at 3% interest you would more than double your monthly income. Maybe Hillary is right, the people are just too dumb.
dmk | Well, the article was written in 1996, so my guess is that recollections are going to be more fuzzy now, 20 years later. And it is difficult to tell in his article exactly when the conversation took place. It might have been in 1993. So were the questions we're asking now ever posed back in 96 after the article came out? Is there any evidence that Clinton actually said these words besides what Brock says Hastert said?
I dislike wasting energy getting upset over nothing. So far, this seems like nothing, as there seems to be no other evidence...
Ferret it out and I will consider it.
Thanks,
