Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I too am sick of geezers whining about their fixed incomes and having to pay for prescriptions while they live in their paid for homes, and adequate savings. Meanwhile, they have their medical bills paid by me. At the same time, they're collecting SS far in excess of what they ever paid in. Then they want to pick my pocket again for prescriptions.

Eskimos had it right when they floated their geezers out.

You express what many think. Thank you.

Glad you aren't making decisions about MY old age (which is coming at me rapidly.) I hate cold weather!

It seems to me by Episode VI you were somewhat old and wrinkly. :)

No, they're not. SS was a rip-off for the currently retired, just like it is for the ones who are still working.

W has some good ideas about how to start fixing this, and anyone who isn't supporting the reforms should really ask themselves why.
