As I said... You are entitled to your opinion. Real _stuff_ is ALWAYS provided by the current producers. We "save up" credits to be expended on this _stuff_ when we pay FICA taxes. There is also the fact that our forgone consumption (created by the saving of the credits, as opposed to their expenditure) frees up "stuff" to be delivered to the people who hold current credits. It is somewhat irrelevant as to how the beans are accounted. -- "Senate rules don't trump the Constitution" -- http://GreaterVoice.org/60
