    why don't you pull your head out of your arse and move a step beyond your class warfare bs son....
    educate yourself on the gap between rich and poor in this country (hint, it's at an all time high) and then tell me that class warfare is bs. look around.

    Dick.

    That's cool though.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    It's 35. Imagine a 35 year old POTUS.

    hypothetically i think i'd be ok with it compared to the other end of the age extreme. i am pretty disturbed by all the accounts of reagan's alzheimers, but it's hard to tell how bad it really was. everyone seems to have a bias when it comes to him. anyhow i wouldn't automatically discount a candidate based solely on age either high or low.

    Well that's the other extreme. eah, I'm a little nervous about a guy in his 80s too. 50s is perfect. It's like those gray hair shampoo commercials. He's got a little gray (experience) but he's still got some color (energy). ;D

    haha those commercials are so funny...there's always a lady involved in them. it's like the commercial is saying he's old enough to know how to please a woman in the sack, but not so old as to suffer from erectile disfunction ;D

    so you're saying we should eliminate taxes entirely?

    what should our society do with those too young, too old or too injured to work?

    explain your plan please...

    i am saying that we should not demonize or punish those who have made the right decisions in life and achieved wealth nor those who have inherited or been just plain lucky....on ss in it's inception was for women and orphans, if you want to toss in the legitimately disabled and dependent children under the age of 18 fine.....that is it.....it should be hard line defined, means tested and the attached medical benefits including disability determined by and paid for by the states.....all other entitlements should be determined by the states and the citizens of those states respectively....reduce govt to those functions mandated within the constitution, turn to a flat tax which i favor over a consumption tax.....
