Williamsburg to Bush: Noooooo

Not that part of Williamsburg. The other part. Where they're worried about the coming hipster social security crisis:

"Dear President Bush,

I invite you to come to Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Here you will meet the young people of today, the people for whom you intend to create 'voluntary personal accounts.' Look at them—they are shabbily dressed, they have no steady jobs, they are hung over and infected. Do you expect these young people to accept responsibility for their own futures? That would be a grave mistake. These hipsters need the Nanny State....

"Don't tamper with Social Security, Mr. President. Strengthen it by raising taxes on our parents."
