Maybe shutting down the government will help.

The thing is, the money you and I paid into Social Security and Medicare last year was paid out last year. The same thing happened with the money we paid in ten years ago, etc. There is no pile of money sitting in our FICA "accounts" invested for our retirements. If anybody but the government ran it, it would be called a Ponzi scheme.

When the population and the economy were growing, it was easy for them to dismiss those with concerns as fringers. Since the Great Recession, it's painfully obvious to anybody paying attention. FICA is a house of cards. Love em or hate em, Millennials are the first generation of Americans who are (as a group) unlikely to do better financially than their parents. They're also smaller in number than the Boomers. The math is simple.

Encouraging news regarding ACOE.

Added emphasis mine.

I don't see what he's done. It's possible I missed it.

Me too.

Trump may do "a lot for gun owners" some day, but so far I don't see what he's done in that area.
