from 50 to only 5 corps in the last 20 years to control all the news

Yep, last year it would have. It will again next year. However pick any ten-year period....
And SS overhead as it exists is 2 to 3 %, and you want to go to wall street where it's 10 to 20%.

Sorry, I haven't taken out a loan in over a decade, but I'm not going to whine about taxes.
Good for you! As stated earlier, you can always pay more and ignore the inherent government inefficiency and waste. Go visit a public school and admire your tax dollars at work. Read the earmarks from your local legislator and be proud.
You are kidding right????
sure 1/2 of it gets wasted but that's true anywhere you go, I appreciate road, bridges, fire stations etc.
You want to talk waste just look at the 600 military bases abroad, or the F-22 Boondoggle
