Yikes, I was hoping to leave the social security solvency problem to my kids. Now that it’s predicted to arrive six years early it appears I might live long enough to experience the problem.
Interestingly enough now that Obama is President the Daily Camera editorial staff now admits Social Security is a problem.
“It,” in this case, is not just a short-term economic recovery, but long-term necessities such as dealing with Social Security and Medicare, fixing a terribly broken health-care system, over-dependence on foreign oil, repairing the environment and doing what we can to manage climate change.
That was not their point of view when Bush was President.
