US Future and its Debt - 2nd Term Blues


Lets Get Real:

Folks, lets be truthful here, the welfare state is killing the WEST, the great advance in health means that people just live longer, in the past as an example a man who had worked in heavy industry would retire after he was 65, then he might live for another decade, now folks, if you retire, and the law has changed folks, you do not have to retire, you can retire let say at 70, and expected to get a birthday card when you reach a 100 from the Monarch,  one can even postulate with modern heath methods an individual can retire at 70 and reach a grand old age of around 110, or even older.   By allowing people to decide when they retire this has hit the chances of younger people getting jobs, it is a vicious mess folks.  The idea that the ObamaCare will cut costs is rubbish, the costs in the UK NHS are always going up, people expect the best service, no matter the cost folks.   The West has to look at what it wants, are voters willing to pay 70% to 80% for the welfare state, that includes the NHS, one has doubts, later because the political elite are not brave the West will start to say NO to welfare, it can not be afforded over the long term.  When that shoe drops folks there political elite at the time will be in a world of political hurt.
