Like Social Security, it seems so very far away to a young worker just beginning to work but it is wonderful to know a president and Congress could see a program to help many who are not fortunate to have stashed away lots of savings. Like President Eisenhower who traveled in convoys and knew there needed to be a better road system of which we travel on the interstate roads today. President Johnson for his Medicare vision, it still gives today. And some day in the future President Obama will be praised along with his Democrat Congress for getting the ACA passed. Yes there is hope.
