I fail to see the relevance or purpose of your question.
None that I know of, but I fail to see what that has to do with anything. I don't think you understood the point I was making.

The only thing you left out was the part about how the administration deliberately lied to Congress about the cost of the program, squelching the mid-level administrator who had the real cost estimates before he could get the figures out there before the vote was taken.
You might be interested in this column, Socko - actually, everyone should read it:
<a href='http://www.sacbee.com/content/opinion/national/will/story/9981764p-10903284c.html' target='_blank'>How our elected officials "pay it forward"</a>
You can throw the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of the '70s and the Roth IRA plan of the '90s into this notion of deferring responsibility to future generations. Saying the Bush Administration is the first in history to utilize this tactic is almost as laughable as the idea that Global Terrorism began the day Bush took office.
Keep trying, though...I'm enjoying the laughs.

Consumers run the markets, you'd be surprised what a little personal responsibility and inititive will do.
Dems don't want this at all - because as soon as folks start taking the initiative to better their own lives, they by and large become Republicans.
