Life Expectancy Declines
This will fix SS in time. I expect declines to be measured in years within a decade.
Based on data from 2008, the latest available, life expectancy in the U.S. fell 36.5 days from 2007 to 77.8 years, according to the report released today. Life expectancy is calculated by taking the death rates from the U.S. population in a specific year and figuring out the average number of years remaining for a person born in 2008. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-1...port-says.html |

Louisiana has the highest obesity rate in the nation I believe.

Todays kids are predicted to live shorter, less healthy lives, and not reach their parents education level or financial success in their lifetimes.
Of course, we have national figures like Sarah Palin dissing the First Lady's attempts to fight childhood obesity. Placing politics over our children's health. Reversing that type of meme would be a good start.

There has been plenty of press discussing both those things recently. Didn't think it was controversial!l
Here's one (there are many) on the decline of the middle class http://www.marketwatch.com/story/mid...can-2010-09-17 I'll find the ones about todays kids not being able to go to, afford college.

The best is when you find someone who is attractive and bright. Usually conservative.

Some newspaper article said that, for the cost of the tax cuts to the rich, we could pay 4-years college tuition in full for half the students now in college.
Meanwhile today: Quote:

You don't need to go to college. The idea that college is for everyone is a complete lie and has left kids graduating with no hope for a job and tons of debt. Get the **** out of here with your nonsense.

I don't think everyone should attend college. Many shouldn't. Even those that want to are probably better off to take 1-2 years of undergrad, then take a year or two off and think about their future before spending the money to complete what they want to do as a career if they need to (if they want to go back) That has nothing to do with where we, as a nation, put our financial priorities, or our perception of what things cost. We could do better on our health, as a nation.

I thought McCain was gay, too? Maybe not. She's smart, though: "The Republican Party seemed "to have lost its way in the last ten years", "the conservative movement seemed "hell-bent on restricting our freedoms rather than expanding them". You go, girl. You know how it used to be - heck, you've watched your father change into something else entirely.
