Ntellya Yes, the self-righteous Democrats are the party of the angels, and the Republicans the spawn of Satan.Life is always that simple, no. As our Poet Laureate put it in "My Back Pages,""Lies that life is black and white spoke from my skull."The debt ceiling is a story that just repeats and repeats, and the press tries to make a dramatic story of it every time, but compromise is reached, and life goes on.Something has to be done with Social Security, because we cannot afford it. According to the Congressional Budget Office, on the current course its trust funds will be exhausted in ten years. Social Security is such a large program that even relatively minor cuts save a lot of revenue. Raising the date until full benefits would be paid was a reasonable solution at the time, due to the increased life span of the elderly.Our biggest problem in funding Social Security is our massive defense spending. NATO countries sponge off us. NATO assigns suggested spending on the military each year. Germany hit about 40% of its amount. Russia, on the other hand, has become a second-rate power that receives almost half of its revenue from fossil fuels and has a GDP one/fifteenth of the U.S. They need not be feared unless they feel cornered. The trillion dollars in aid we will be giving Ukraine could have gone to our people who earned the money. Our only contest with the Russians that remained was which country would open the most new McDonalds in a year.
