>Because taxation is forced (at the point of a gun), it can actually be proper to receive SS benefits as a form of restitution.

Wow!
It's great to hear from you. Fox News (in order to watch the Masters I had to upgrade (actually downgrade) my cable subscription and Fox News is now polluting my TV availability. No worry, it will disappear now that Patrick Reed has won the Masters) is no substitute for impassioned discourse.

So, let's get this right.
The navy is cranking out aircraft carriers at $13/billion/unit with annual operating costs of about $160 million/unit.
Is that proper, despite the fact that taxation is forced at the point of - not a gun - but a nuclear missile funded by those forced taxes?
