I want to hear a better idea than the obama plan. i,m 59 been working since i was 16. i want to retire, and can do so except  no one will insure me because of heath issues. My cobra is good for 18 mo at a cost of $1000.00 a month, i didn't pay that much for a house payment. So who has a better idea?

Go to the retirement calculator, put in your numbers, if you retire at 59 or 60 it does not matter when you take your ss  at 90 money will get tight. But who cares the nursing home will get the rest for wiping your butt.

We are broke, if our country was a business,  it would be an empty building

We are bankrupt, if we were a company we would be closed down. The revolution is coming. However the government will push us around as long as we let them.
