The global economic impact of the five leading chronic diseases -- cancer, diabetes, mental illness, heart disease, and respiratory disease -- could reach $47 trillion over the next 20 years, according to a study by the World Economic Forum (WEF).
"This is not a health issue, this is an economic issue -- it touches on all sectors of society," Eva Jane-Llopis, WEF's head of chronic disease and wellness, said in a telephone interview.
Social security is already a topic in the US 2012 elections, what will the next decade bring. Our economic quicksand is deepening as more issues tumble in, we are sinking and need a life line..

Occupy Wall Street as least the non or bipartisan aspects of it, are about protesting against Wall Street. And are tired of Wall Street getting bailed out for their bad behavior. And their relationship with the Federal Government and all of the corporate welfare Wall Street gets from taxpayers and the fact that they've seen their profits go up the last ten years. While the rest of the country have seen their income go down. And have decided to take out all of their anger on Wall Street and Corporate America broadly.
The guy in this video (whoever he is) is talking about the austerity measures that were taken in Europe and in America, including as it relates to what we call Social Security, which is our pension insurance system. He makes some good points, but when government's run deficits and debt, someone has to pay that price and cuts have to be made.

If you don't want government running deficits and debt and wasting your money, fire the bozos (to use this guy's word) and replace them with people who know how to manage a government.
