Not watching the 'news' #231.................from Rico

Another episode in NOT watching the fabricated entertainment and grand distraction laughingly called by some..."the news."

Forget about some teenage hoodlem named Tyvek, or whatever.

There are MUCH more serious problems to worry about, yet it would seem that our manipulators don't want us to feel bad or unduly worry, so it's not brought to the sheeple's attention.

How about the "Baby Boomers" (the 79 million Americans born between 1945 and 1964) and their "Retirement?"
- Unlike preceeding generations, they did a really BAD job of saving for retirement. Many relied upon debt to lead the illusion of a prosperous consum[tion-based lifestyle.

EBRI (employee benefit researh institution) estimates that 30% of the Boomers have LESS than $1,000 to get them through their retirement years.

Consider what happens when you get huge numbers of retirees hitting the system in a Nation that is already deeply in debt?

But, no serious mention of this on the crooked meanderings of any re-election campaign trail.

I wonder who is on Parancing With the Stars tonight? American Idiot?
