“I think it is zero. And I have actually had this experience and I think Mr. Perry, my friend from Pennsylvania, had this experience where we have held budget townhalls and we have held well over a hundred in our district over the last couple years. We walk through the numbers and then have a discussion about it. I have had an individual go to the microphone and basically use a curse word and then say: I don't care about my grandkids. I want every dime. Part of the audience laughed. Part of the audience was terrified. Maybe that was a more interesting discussion when it really was about your great-grandkids or your grandkids or your kids. You have to understand that the erosion of these numbers, substantially because of the growth of participation, utilization of the benefits, and the horrible economic growth, is no longer future generations. This is us, particularly you. I didn't realize you were so old.”
