Does anyone remember Thom Hartman saying this? [View all]

I remember hearing him twice say that because of the baby boomer's the folks now are paying for themselves and for the future person to have either SS or medicare? Then after so many years we start paying again just for 1 person. Does anyone have any idea on this. The reason I ask is that I was at an AARP meeting last night (statewide meeting for the general public in NE). They were asking for how to improve the SS and medicare in this country. So I did bring up the public option and the guy with the mike ran away.

I could not remember exactly what Thom Hartman had said about the above exactly or would have said that. I probably said enough anyway as I was called a socialist. HA HA.
