Actually, I'd vote for the hippy turtle Crush. When we had to watch Finding Nemo at a team building thing at my old job, a girl said I was Crush.

Wow! The end of the world must be near! For once I am in complete agreement with you, Merc. Nemo is my role model! He is way cool! He'd be a great politician too, because he'd forget all the stupid arguments and go off on a tangent and vote to pass something completely irrelevant to whatever was going on. What a politician doesn't know he can't hurt the country with.

Another example of my long term argument that employers will dump their insurance onto the backs of the government. The only downside may be that people will not be able to retire early and will work well into their 60's, 70's, or until death.

Quote:
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Employers are getting out of the retirement insurance business. This could be worrisome for American workers who want to retire, before hitting the Medicare-eligible age of 65.
A majority of large employers today offer some form of retiree insurance -- both to early retirees and to retired workers who are Medicare eligible.
But a new survey of 250 large companies by Towers Watson shows that many of them have pared back on their retiree insurance plans and others are planning to discontinue them permanently.
Stuart Alden, Towers Watson's senior health care consultant, said these changes are "significant"
47% of employers polled for the Towers Watson's annual retiree benefits survey said they've already made changes to retiree insurance plan designs.
These include reducing coverage and shifting more of the cost-sharing to early retirees.
When asked what alternatives to early retiree plans employers were considering, 42% said they're considering terminating early retiree plans and will encourage workers to consider buying health insurance through "health exchanges" instead.

Well, I figure I'll be working either to the day I die or else until the alzheimer's starts to become too irritating.

Tango on, my fellow boomers! Just keep following Nemo and all will be well.

The intentions of Democrats are only the best. They want all of the old to have lavish retirements, all of the young to have scholarships, verse-penning cowboys to have festivals funded by government, and everyone to have access to all the best health care, at no cost to himself. In the face of a huge wave of debt swamping all western nations, this is the core of their argument: They want a fair society, and their critics do not; they want to help, and their opponents like to see people suffer; they want a world filled with love and caring, and their opponents want one of callous indifference, in which the helpless must fend for themselves. (“We must reject both extremes, those who say we shouldn’t help the old and the sick and those who say that we should,” quips the New Yorker’s Hendrik Hertzberg.) But in fact, everyone thinks that we “should” do this; the problem, in the face of the debt crisis, is finding a way that we can. It is about the “can” part that the left is now in denial: daintily picking its way through canaries six deep on the floor of the coal mine, and conflating a “good” with a “right.”
