"1. It is true that as economic opportunity is lost to the lower and middle classes, and as baby boomers retire, more and more people are becoming dependent on the government for sustenance."
Economic opertunity is only lost to folks like you who are too busy holding your hand out to be willing to work for what you want.
"2. I don't yet see any rich or middle class folks being robbed by the government, although I do note our indebtedness piling up at an alarming rate."
So what you are saying is that you do not pay taxes.
"3. I do see America's wealth being captured by the top 1%-5% as you folks fret over black welfare queens and socialism."
No one is so blind as he who will not see.
