Hey..... our 'financially embarrassed' enjoy a change of scenery. Deserts are great places to unwind from the stresses of job-hunting and maintaining a household.

The feral bands of killers in weird cars adds to the ambience.

Ron "the" Johnson is the Tommy Tupperware of Upchuck Grassley's: gross stupidity lavishly garnished with senility.

On edit, OTOH, had he simply said he wants to make SS/Med. defined contribution plans, instead of defined benefit plans, every Republican and too many Democrats (the Blue Dog/Third Way/New Dem Problem Creators Solvers Caucus), along with the M$M, would hail him as the reigning Mensa of the Senate.

For those who don't get the distinction, over half of all SS recipients receive more in benefits in their first year on the rolls than they've contributed to it over a working lifetime. Pro-tip to Ron:THAT"s how you do it (/s).
