The shutdown of government spending will serve both short-term needs in balancing the budget but address long-term budget problems we face due to the Nanny State mentality in Washington.Take Medicare, one of the biggest causes of our current budget trouble. If we slash spending dramatically, we will not only eliminate one of the biggest drains on the U.S. Treasury, but we will also fix the nagging demographic problem caused by Baby Boomers living longer and clogging Social Security roles.
Without healthcare, surely few of our seniors will survive into old age. This will dramatically reduce both future Medicare and Social Security payouts.
These socialist programs are part of the problem. It’s time to make them part of the solution.
This was published along side the we site's for sale analysis of DAL stock. This vacuous twenty something suit proposes if people were dead, they would not require as many benefits. He equates walking away from an under water mortgage to pulling the life support plug on someone else's kids, or parents ... why not?
This kind of buffoonery is why I'm not too keen on mutual funds and hope our company is not watching the stock price too closely.
We have good revenue growth, conservative management and are pulling down trans Atlantic capacity just as the threat of sovereign debt default is increasing.
