“Kill it all... do not raise the spending limit... force these criminals to make across the board cuts... do it now... it is our last chance”
Agreed. There is no money left. The only way to fund anyone’s ease is to force someone else to pay for it. In this case, the younger generations. Kill the entire socialist nonsense now, and end Social Security, and every other socialist, unconstitution program. If the elderly don’t like it, count it as a lesson to be learned. Don’t vote in politicians who promise “other peoples’ money.” They mean your money, and they’re giving it to someone else, and wasting it in the process until it’s all gone. This nonsense should have been nipped in the bud. Those retiring now had about 50 years to set things right. They supported looters, and then think we should pay for it. They should have ALL said “NO!” 40 years ago, at least. Now they can reap the fruits of their labors, or rather the lack of diligence and/or trust they put into corrupt politicians, instead of taking care of business. This started with parent’s not caring enough about their children to ensure they had a proper education. That can be blamed upon the Greatest and Silent Generations, first, and then the Boomers.
There’s a place for charity, but first they have to acknowledge that they wasted their time and energy NOT repealing Social Security, and then admit they’re not entitled to anyone elses’s money now that theirs is gone. Get rid of Social Security, and do it NOW. There is no rule of law in the land if the U.S. Constitution is not followed, and there is no place for this, or anyone else’s pet socialist program.
P.S. NO we don’t owe anyone “their” money back especially with interest. If the older generations are angry, they can get it back from the politicians who wasted it (who they supported or allowed to waste it), not foist it upon their children and grandchildren. There’s no money, for anyone. It’s time to face that fact. The Chinese and everyone else will soon stop subsidizing the lazy and nonproductive among us. It’s time to fight the regulations and become productive again. It’s a multi-faceted problem. But it starts with no more handouts. And sorry for those who failed to plan for retirement, social security was meant to SUPPLEMENT your retirement program, not replace it. If you have no money saved away, I’m sorry, that was poor planning. Whenever you put your trust and security into the “Benevolence” of the Government and it’s programs, you get burned. Now teach that principle to your children and grandchildren, there’s still time.
The entire reason for refusing to raise the debt limit is that there is no will at this time to reverse course... so something has to be done that forces them to cut spending. 60 years of incremental march to socialism will not be undone overnight. No one will ever take away any social security from anyone on it or about to start on it... but we can trim it way back for future generations... and we can eliminate other departments like the epa with Executive orders and we can cut other departments funding to the bone... but it will not happen overnight and it will never happen at all unless they refuse to raise the debt limit now. This will force a change and that change will be reflected in economic growth and the strengthening of our dollar... then the arguments that it will “never work” will die.
