" ... invested in a market fund that is planned to mirror the S&P 500. ... I’m no economist, so I’m sure smart people will say it would never work. But then, neither will what we are doing now."

It's not just the economists who oppose market-based Social Security. It's the folks who count on those illegal voters voting for them. They'll call it something else, but that's why they put those illegals on SS; that's why they want SS broke. It makes more clients.

It their eyes we're clients to be ordered around; not citizens to be obeyed.

good report! Do you know of any effort to determine (if it is possible) how many of the 2.1 million illegals voted?

I've wondered the same thing, Mike. I wouldn't be surprised if Elon's guy is digging deeper into it.

The trouble with elections, though, is that once they are done and the people sworn in, there is no clear path to correcting the error, except to do better next time. If you win by a 20 point margin it's moot.

The margin of error seems to be getting larger, however. In Wisconsin it was a 10-point spread 176k votes. That's huge. And maybe it was illegitimate, but even if it was, how would you fix it without a new election? And if you don't prevent non-citizens from voting the next time, what would be the point?

Let's hope Elon is digging in to this. Wisconsin should be but since dems control the state it won't likely happen. The dems are an end justifies the means outfit. Not all of them but far more than GOP. Lord help us.

I think it was Adams who said our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.
