Looks like you should have been paying attentions when they voted in these stupid programs hat were supposed to take care of you when you got old.
Will you explain to me how working hard, saving, living frugally, doing our best to live simply and take care of ourselves has to do with dependency on government programs like Social Security, and medicare which were in place before we had any say?
I was a stay at home mom. I’ve earned approx $10/mnth from social security if I ever claim it.
I left the military when my first son was born, 1978. I could have collected unemployment benefits. I refused that government handout. I thought it was immoral to take money I hadn’t earned.
This responsible adult never voted for anything that would take a dime from my kids or anyone else.
I’m an old woman. I’m cutting my own wood, taking care of our 20 acres, and have my own garden. I’d rather starve than look to the government.
“Is life so dear, or peace so sweet as to purchased at the price of slavery? Forbid, Almighty God, I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.” Patrick Henry
I’m old enough to remember that being taught in school. I’m no Patrick Henry, but that thinking is my blood.
So it’s not your fault then, is it?
Of course, I was not born when these programs were created... so it certainly isnt my fault either
I wonder who we can blame for spending their grandchildrens money?
Good answer!
your entire argument seems to be getting stupider
who was it that was alive and voted for these things?
did you do anything to stop them 40 years ago?
