Posted on: Angle’s Social Security ideas are wrong

Government workers - federal, state and local - all have a choice to pay either social security or a quasi-private pension. Recent surveys indicate 98.4% choose the pension. The pension funds invest in stocks, bonds and development projects. The workers can "cash out" early and re-invest at a later time. They can borrow against their investment. If government workers have that right, then why don't the rest of us? If it's too risky, then why is it ok for public sector workers? We should all have the same rights, government or private.

Posted on: The Wynn sues Barkley, claims $400,000 gambling debts unpaid

I wonder if he'll counter sue and claim that it was well known he had a gambling problem and the casino enabled him to keep gambling. One successful suit like that and the whole empire can fall.
