This would, proponents say, reduce the national debt.
Why don't the fiscal conservatives for go there Gov. pension and go on S.S. and see how they feel about this move. I'm sure with their assets they would get close to zero for a pension or from S.S. Why is it always the working class that has to foot the bill for the mistakes of WASHINGTON!!!!!
