The logic amazes me. You criticize Romney in paragraph two with a classic leftwing class warfare argument, with hands off my entitlements to boot. Then in the conclusion you say Romney is too liberal, after using Obama’s Alinskyite critique.
You must have been born yesterday to think that if you can get the GOP to abandon retirees, the budget is going to get balanced. These idiots will take the money from Marcella (they want to purge the whitey elderly people via theft/poverty) and spend it on Obama’s mob who have paid nothing for it. That is called wealth transfer. There won’t be any “balanced budget” with this crowd. Ever.
Thanks, Sara. I am a bit OVER 65 - I am 80. I didn’t have to get on Medicare until I was 76 as my husband still had insurance from his company until I was 76 and I was on that. So, I SAVED the GOVERMENT MONEY! There is something about Social Security that is not fair. I paid into that all my life, but since my husband died, I can only draw one of those, either his or mine. So, the GOVERNMENT MADE MONEY as they kept my paid in Social Security money and I only have his.
It would sure be great if we could get the wealthy and even the over $100,000 crowd to vote like the social security crowd, man, conservatism would rule.
Unfort. you only paid TAXES all those years (FICA and Medicaid). There was, is, will be no promised benefit from the gov’t that can not be rescinded.
Choosing to live your life on the promise of gov’t is a fools errand. There is no legal nor moral authority to enslave any generation for the lies from gov’t.
You want(ed) a defined benefit, there should have been riots to pass the SS privatization.
