And I see people still hold on to the notion that they are simply getting back what they paid in and so this really isn’t a handout. Sorry but that ship sailed long ago. You were paying taxes for 20, 30, 40 years that went to pay some one else’s handout. Now you are asking the younger generation to pay you a hand out. No one paid into any special account and you aren’t getting back anything. Its simply your turn at the public teet.

The ol ‘socialism for me, not for thee’ style ‘consevative’ thinking there..

Sure they get their medical and living expenses covered by the government for a long time.. But hey, they ‘paid’ for it right? Hahahah.

Bullshit and you are definitely and opinionated blowhard.

The government took my money for over 40 years, over three million dollars worth and I'm getting about 2 grand a month and you say it's my turn at the teat.

If we were together right now in the same space, the amount of oxygen being consumed would be reduced.

The younger generation is not giving me a handout, you blowhard on this you nitwit.

The feds confiscated my money, and now you asshole, accuse me of being a teat sucker.

You need to hope, we never meet.

The reaction of some on this thread is exactly why we’re never going to solve this without default.

People tend to get angry when they realize that they are the last ones to figure out that they’ve been ripped off their entire lives, and there is nothing left for them.

So I'm not a retiree who paid into the system for fifty years, I'm just a bum with my hand out?

I don't think so, bud.
