I agree but what about the young/middle age generation that is also paying into the SS and are going to get screwed over because of the ridiculous spending done by the old generation. The government will have to scrap the SS and all these entitlement schemes sooner than later because of the debt bomb.

Armaan has his butt in place of his mouth and only thing that comes out his hot air and crap!

I'm not sure what is wrong with Tanisha. Prior to BB she was an unsuccessful actress, but she appeared smart and normal human being wise. BB has messed with her brains it seems. But she also seems to be suffering from a mild case of butt-in-mouth disease.

Atleast Tanisha has a healthy bank balance that will surpass her lifetime and she can still live a comfortable life without doing anything; I doubt this about Armaan.

Some ppl do abuse the system, no doubt abt tht. However, I would like to think a majority of them don't. Some genuinely need the aid. I wish the government was more effective in weeding out those that abuse this privilege.

There is a cost benefit aspect to it. The cost of finding and punishing abusers shouldn't be more than the benefits. In Florida they tried to weed out drug abusers from welfare systems. They thought they would save when they kicked out abusers. However, the percentage of actual abusers is not very large. It turned out to be more expensive to run the drug testing and weed out abusers, than just give welfare to everyone qualified.

It depends on what philosophy you subscribe to. I believe it is ok to allow freeloaders as long as no genuinely needy person is denied. Others believe it is ok to deny a few genuinely needy people here and there as long as you don't allow freeloaders.

If people like Arman are friends then one doesn't need any enemies. He is a jealous, control freak and a bully too. Tanisha for her own welfare should not be with Arman even for the sake of game! Her being too docile, meek and compliant with Arman is so disconcerting.

I could be wrong about this, but from what I have noticed it is the older generation that is more careful with money. Very, very careful. They were paid in peanuts back then and they put in a lot of hours. They can't afford to do a lot with their Social Security. It is not like they get a lot... They manage to pay their bills. That's about it.

I don't blame them for complaining about the government. I could be biased but I feel sorry for old people because I see them trying. I see some of them still working hard to support their family. I see others still trying to save up money. I feel they have been part of the working class generation... ones that worked hard for money... ones that relied on security... they are more cautious than risky.
