Spoken like a true boomer. The boomers are going to collect almost all of their benefits before 2042 when benefits would be cut to 73%. Those 30 and younger workers will then get to take the cut to 73%, and in the meantime get to pay for the boomers retirement. Or else those younger workers do the same as boomers and screw the next generation being born now. By all means, let's keep playing screw the next generation. -- Erik Reuter http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
