In Which Zandar Answers Your Burning Questions

Cookie Jill over at skippy's place asks:
fellow republicans want to rip the financial rug from under american children with down's syndrome and other disabilities? republicans want to end social security....well, social security aids in keeping many americans with mental disabilities alive.

where is sarah palin's outrage that there are republicans want to be death panels for those like her son, trig?
Kind of a valid point there.  Social Security and Medicaid pay for the kinds of disabilities that Trig Palin has in order that they can live more normal lives.  Republicans want to deeply slash these programs.  And actually, they want to privatize them so that the companies running them can introduce profit motive into things like Social Security and Medicaid.  That makes it much easier to death panel people, yes?

How ironic.  It's almost like Sarah Palin is a complete hypocrite.

Is the Palin Family collecting Social Security payments for Trig? Would she be willing to give up this payment?

Something has to be done with the current system. Even Barack has stated the the effect that they are unsustainable. Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security are going to bankrupt this country long before those dick heads on Wall St. have a chance to bleed them dry.

Tough decisions have to be made, and as history has shown with the above mentioned, Government isn't it. Regulations from Government will help, but Government running it entirely, no.
