Are We Surprised? Cancerian Dubya Calls His Mother to the Rescue

Moody, and with the strong potential to be oversensitive, pinchingly mean and isolationist, Cancer is also the sign of the Mother - so are we surprised? that Dubya has called her to push his Social Security plan that will give his rich broker friends trillions of dollars in fees?

I think not.

Hmm, Barbara Bush has never had to financially plan for retirement, nor rely on Social Security. What can she say that is of worth? Not one of the 17 grandchildren in the Bush family will ever see poverty because of their family inheritances, wealth and familial Saudi connections. So again, what worthwhile thing can she say? We shall see......

I also ponder this: did you notice that the plan says it "allows" people under age 50 to play the stock market to try to get some retirement income, rather than the truth - that it will FORCE them to play the form of gambling we know as the stock market?

Can forcing people to play the stock market game of chance be made a legitimate government law or policy?
