    Road maintenance and fire protection could certainly be privatized. Police fall under the executive branch of the government, law enforcement, police protection is not socialism. Social Security is a legal ponzi scheme administered rather poorly by the government and we should dump it.

    I didn't give specifics and yes I want my effing money back too, unfortunately there is no money, they spend it as soon as they get it. There should be a cut off, say now, anyone over 30 stays in it, anyone under 30 gets out.

    I operate like I'm not going to get it though.

    Yeah me too. I'm going to take it a couple years early and just hope I can get a few years worth before they spend it out completely. As soon as there are more on the dole than there are working, it's over.
