I paid into the system from the time I was 15 until I landed in the ICU at 60, fresh from finishing one of my usual 70 hour weeks.
I miss my job, I miss my customers and the people I worked with, if I could work I'd be out the door in a heartbeat.
Notice I didn’t say anything about those who are truly eligible, but those who get it merely because they signed up on a Tuesday after 3 pm or whatever reason tick me off royally. I know two who most definitely shouldn’t be on it. They’re out doing scouts or shopping or clearing land or partying or vacationing or a dozen other things between cashing in on my tax dollars.
