Comment on selected Social Security Reform Criteria & Public Computer Structures

President Bush's 4% solution for social security private sector investment failed to mention more than one substantive criteria; the necessary condition that the private sector investments could not be spent before retirement age, and then within a rational, scaled withdrawl quantity.

Poor and middle class Americans will spend their private sector inestments before retirement age thye first time they are unemployed, and then the state will face the additional burden of replacing those lost investments eventually to meet the basic reasons for having social security to start with.

The rich and well-to-do in the administration seem to forget that easy, long term stock investment security and growth strategies fail for the unemployed that need to spend the money for food, housing or for the middle class, a bigger SUV than their neighbor, or a 30,000 dollar plasma TV.

I will leave off this subject at this point.

Regarding public computers.

The maintainance costs of public library computer networks and their upgrading might be increased, I will venture to guess, by eliminating so many individual computers and replacing them with wirless dumb terminals enabled to connect to a few or just one quality computer maintained by the library.

Perhaps a rack of disk drives associated with the specific terminals would be useful, as might flat screen vdts.

The public library assisstant Igors or quankearls that make the hardware malfunctions of public computers and corrections 50% of their feudal turf domain leverage would be more restricted from spamming online time with offline 'advice' if wireless terminals and the remote compyters were streamlined into a reduced technical configuration that is more trouble-free. Sometimes public computer usage resembles that of a bad a bad hominid encampment wherein a motivated ape raves too much for ego reasons instead of a modern American environbment

Breaking free of evil and retarding social structures is of course one of the perennially difficult challenges that an American citizen may encounter. of course one wants to eliminate inhibiting social factors fom the public environment so far as possible when they negatively impact the fundamental social strcutures that are implicitly an elements of the United States constitutional parameters.

President Bush with his personal Igor nominee for Attorney General now being reviewed by the in-house inquisition review board has exemplified the negative national drift toward a fundamenatal disrespect for human libert. The evasive and disingenuous answers of the nominee toward questions regarding totrure seemed more appropirate for a wise guy with the training of a consigliary than for an Attorney General.

A forthright candidate for Attorney general should have answerd plain questions honestly and directly. The training for evasiveness may serve a criminal attorney quite well, yet it is not appropriate for a gentleman seeking to represent the legal interests of the people of the United States at the top of the Department of Justice. Plain speaking and integrity should exist in the government at least at the executive level.

The trend toward disingenuity in a new era of politics may negatively impact American plans to schedule a withdrawl of forces from Iraq in an orderly manner after the election. Iraqis will need to have the will to take up their own security or their own civil wars, perhaps we should assist the Kurds toward autonomy in that event, in the near future.
