no inflation is pile of horse shit. I have a condo unit. because of the costs of insurance increasing and the cost of maintenance for the place we went this year from two hundred a month to two hundred and fifty. in three months we have are annual meeting and vote on raising it another fifty dollars too three hundred a month. I get a cost report each year showing how the budget is spent so I know that theses increases are needed but for some one living on social security and the money I get from renting out a room this hurts.

you are right when ever I talked to a liberal that had any brains they knew that it would not work but they figured if they could destroy the old system of insurance when Obama’s plan failed it would force who ever was in office to have the government step in and institute single payer insurance,

My financial guy warned me to budget a 15% increase per year when planning retirement. "But," I sez, "that's more than any of my funds make." "Yep," he replied. "If you retire before Medicare kicks in you will slowly go broke. It's in the system."

Oh, and it's mandatory. And the IRS is in charge of enforcement. The people who thought this was a good idea are not our friends.

That’s why nobody read what was in ObamaCare, they didn’t care, they knew it was just the middle step to the ultimate solution.

>>We’ve never been in a war like this one.

We haven’t. But, the Balkan states have seen several in the last 30 years. Bosnia is the future for our cities.

I have mixed feelings on it being a slow slide or it happening all of a sudden.

It has already started, so I think it will be a slow slide to the edge of the cliff and then it will grow exponentially from there.

I agree.

Obama is going to do as much damage as he can before he leaves so it might really speed up.

I’m not convinced the Dems (other than Hitlery) really want to keep the White House next year. I don’t think they want to deal with or take responsibility for what’s headed our way.

No one even gets up to help the woman. The war starts when we start fighting back.

IMHO the Dems are deliberately holding down SS increases so that they can run on “Taxing Wall Street to EXPAND Social Security” next fall.">

I'd like to believe this - BUT, The first two yrs O'butt was in office, he put a 3 YEAR freeze of SS. That got cut down to 2 when the pubbies took over Congress and lifted the freeze for the 3rd yr.

SOOO the question begs - where the h*ll is congress on this this year?

How can it be legal to give ZERO cost of living and jack up the premium deduction by 50% - costing seniors @ $55 more a month!!!

That will be a “trigger event” (no pun intended).

I’m surprised it hasn’t already happened.

The County Sheriffs will have something to say about any kind of confiscation and it will be in favor of us.
