Doctors and nurses will ask you to rate your level of pain, with 1 being a bother and 10 being unbearable.
To solve the looming insolvency, the pain will be tough. At one time, say before 2008, the pain to the citizens would have been 1 or 2. But now, because the deficit money is GIVEN AWAY… you should take that as irretrievable… the pain is going to be more like 4 or 5. Bad, but we can live through it. Older folks will take the 5 and middle income folks will take the 4.
IF WE DO NOT TAKE FIRM AND EFFECTIVE STEPS NOW, BEHOLD THE FATE OF GREECE AND WISCONSIN. Our whole nation will be embroiled in demonstrations and wailing from the disenfranchised entitled class.
The future “ants” and "worker bees", our children and grandchildren, will not be able to feed the “grasshoppers" and "drones” of entitlement. They will not be able to pay enough social security for the “obliviouts” of the baby boomer generation who neglected to save for retirement. The Golden Goose will have been butchered and there will be collapse of entitlements, expectations, and hope. The pain level will hover around 9 or 10.
Any Democrat or Republican who kicks the can on down the road is irresponsible.
