The stock market at present has a giant Bubble and I'm thinking with this sub-prime thing, could burst at any time. stay tuned. | medicineman,
My point was that there are other options besides SS and the stock market that provide for individuals. One size does not fit all imo.

I was just pointing out that the government, so far, has been right on time with my money. That may not prove they can handle money and there is surely a large amount of mismanagement of taxpayers dollars, (Iraq war comes to mind), but in my personal case they have been excellent. There may be some money funds or other investments that could reap you far more rewards. If you are confident that you can invest for your retirement better than SS then you should be allowed to. But if you go bust, then no Gov't cheeze for you.

I've talked to people about their candidates. People who support Ron Paul are more informed about the issues than other candidates supporters. Easy to understand when Ron Paul knows the issues better than any candidates and has actual plans to solve the problems that politicians have caused. There are not many politicians who weigh out the cause and effect on issues like Ron Paul.
I think you are a bit uninformed. You've twice posted a link to the same site which has incorrect information as well as said those facts check out, when they dont. | That deserves to be quoted because there is A LOT of truth in there!!  RON PAUL supporters definitely seem to the most informed *cough educated cough*.
The more I read what you post, PARKER, the more I enjoy it
RON PAUL REVOLUTION!

I think that the entire VA system is an excellent model of U.S. government efficacy (as if Social Security weren't example enough) in providing for its own. |

What happens elsewhere I know not, but they've treated me well.
