You've got to love this quote by Senator McCain today:
Americans have got to understand that we are paying present-day retirees with the taxes paid by young workers in America today. And that's a disgrace. It's an absolute disgrace, and it's got to be fixed.
Fixed? Isn't that the way Social Security has always been run? Isn't that how any type of insurance is run?
People pay in, other's take out.
In fact, isn't this how any type of financial service where people make contributions and receive payments is run? Is banking a disgrace when one person contributes to savings and another person takes out a loan? Are taxes a disgrace when you pay them and they use them to fix a bridge that you'll never drive over?
I just can't believe that anyone running for President would say something so unbelievably stupid. This is the best that the GOP could do? Nominate this guy?
The more you listen to John McCain, the more you learn that he's not exactly the brightest politician in Washington.
Sen. Obama no longer has to prove to the public that judgment trumps experience, McCain is proving it for him.
