A nuclear Iran, you own it.
Bowing to Russia, you own it.
Another severe recession, you own it.
A volatile border with Mexico, you own it.
Trouble getting good health care, you own it.
Higher health insurance costs and health care costs, you own it.
No budget, you own it.
Our allies mistrust, you own it.
Another trillion of debt, you own it.
More Benghazi situations, you own it.
No one willing to join the military, you own it.

You assume they care...they beat the Republicans, that's all that matters...

[RedLS1GTO]

Your post is great in theory, but there will always be someone or something else for them to blame...

It's a whole lot easier to point a finger, no matter how asinine it may be, than to take responsibility for their own actions.

I'm still blaming old people for social security and medicare/caid. You know, the biggest components of our budget.

We do keep people alive too long and spend too much doing it.

Since SS and Medicare require people to have actually worked to get those benefits the Trillion dollars a year spent on Welfare is Equal to the spending SS and Medicare.

Total Welfare Spending Now at $1 Trillion - By NRO Staff - The Corner - National Review Online

Excerpt

CRS estimates that exclusively federal spending on these federal programs equaled approximately $746 billion, and further emphasizes that there is a substantial amount of state spending—mostly required as a condition of states’ participation—on these same federal programs (primarily Medicaid and CHIP). Based on data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Oxford Handbook of State and Local Government Finance, Budget Committee staff calculated at least an additional $283 billion in state contributions to those same federal programs,1 for a total annual expenditure of $1.03 trillion. By comparison, in 2011, the annual budget expenditure for Social Security was $725 billion, Medicare was $480 billion, and non-war defense was $540 billion

.

How about we end Welfare and use those money to support those who paid their whole life, stayed healthy by not doing bad things and whop remain active VS pissing away another trillion on the Deadbeats, Dropouts, drunks and druggie on the dole?

They are still going to blame Bush

[Giraffe (He/Him)]

Here's where this entire "You own it" argument falls apart. We are all part of this country and we are all Americans. We ALL own it.

Yet only less than 50% are required to pay for it. And the top 5% pay the biggest part of the tab.

So we do not "All Own it" Most are rewarded by the effort of the Few and CLAIM ownership. Yet they put nothing in but take massive amounts out.

[Giraffe (He/Him)]

So we do not "All Own it"

Yes we do. You may not like your roll in this arrangement, but that's not the point is it? If and when the house collapses, you'll be affected. Therefore? WE own it.

Good point. But since I and others like me are PAYING for it WE should have a bigger equity position. Apparently with BHO and the left we don't because it's not "Fair".

So I will do my best to reduce my contribution to the process and hopefully when in does fail I can keep enough to stay on top.

[Giraffe (He/Him)]

But since I and others like me are PAYING for it

And so am I BTW.

I wish there was a way to do this without affecting ME so damn much. Reducing your contribution when you're a working stiff like I am only means one thing. Less income.

One way I am doing it is differed compensation. The company takes a set % from my paycheck each week and holds it until I have retired then will disperse it. Hopefully I will be in a lower tax bracket then.

I am maxing out the 401k and my wifes IRA.

I am doing other things that I will not post about that are legal now but may not be legal in a few years.
