Haaretz: "A majority of Jewish Israelis believe that the state should encourage Israeli Arabs to emigrate, according to a survey conducted by the Dahaf Institute on behalf of Madar, the Palestinian Center for Israel Studies."
That smells of ethnic cleansing to me, especially when people who are not native to the region and whose ancestors have no roots there, are housed on territories from which the original inhabitants will have to move.

ProtectYourCheck: "... the average worker retiring in 2005 at the full retirement age (65 years and 6 months) will receive $1,277 a month in Social Security benefits.
... a worker whose earnings are at the median of the middle household earnings quintile, who was born between 2000 and 2009, and who is retiring in the future at age 65, would have his/her Social Security benefits scheduled under current law reduced by about 45%. For a retiree receiving a benefit of $1,277 a month in 2005, a reduction in benefits of about 45% would result in a benefit of about $690 a month."
