Sad how our government has forgotten this very old virtue... we kill today without thought of tomorrow. -- Robert, Somewhere in Europe 1
Robert, well said. -- Mike, Norwalk
-- Jim K, Austin
-- Ronw13, Yachats Or
Never mind the Government's errors of not preparing for tomorrow: I did the same thing: Greed -- borrowed, had my sports cars and "the high life," then came retirement. OOPS .. well, at least I have Social Security, wherein I'm lucky to be able to have ANY wheels ! A PENNY SAVED WOULD HAVE BEEN A PENNY EARNED. ( Why didn't Ben Franklin tell me that ? -- sarcasm, in case you missed it ) -- Bobble, No. Ferrisburgh, VT
