RE :”Idiot”

I believe THIS woman agrees with you on that, and on Social Security too. That alone would make me re-think my position if I agreed with her like you seem to.

Well, Nancy and Jessie probably agree with me on where to take a dump when the urge strikes too. Although it does cause me some misgivings to know that you won't be able to use a restroom after this, I'll get over it.

Please point to one person on this thread that endorsed Social Security in it's present format. I must have missed it if someone did. Just link me to where anyone did. Thanks in advance.

You are calling people Marxists if they refuse to see seniors have to do with less than they were promised over the 45 to 50 years they were paying into the Social Security system. That is not Marxism. It's merely the honorable thing to do. That is a Conservative trait. I wouldn't dream of watching you hold up your end of an agreement for 45 to 50 years, then back someone who wanted to renege on what you were promised. Call me whatever you like, I'm not buying into cutting or outright eliminating Social Security for our seniors.

There is a natural lessoning of purchasing power that afflicts seniors, because they become stuck on a fixed income. Cost of living increases don't begin to cover the loss of their purchasing power. If you start cutting their Social Secruity too, before long they won't be able to subsist on what you have left them. Gas costs twice what it did two years ago. Did seniors income go up? No. Food costs go up. Are seniors getting raises? Barely. Our older citizens are frequently unable to go out and work any longer. They have no other source of income than Social Security. I'm not backing a plan that whittles away at the income they were promised. If you want to stab them in the back, I'll stand between you and them any day of the week.

Advocate for a better plan than our current Social Security system, and I'm on your side. Advocate for reneging on what our seniors worked 45 to 50 years for, and I'm not.

Frankly, I support what AntCeeCee said LINK to you regarding those comments LINK, and I'm right here on good old Free Republic.

As I stated, if you wish to advocate for a better system, I'm all for it. If you're going to advocate for cutting or eliminating services to people who spent 45 to 50 years paying into a system without major complaint, I'm not with you. You can jump up and down. You can roll on the floor kicking and screaming. You can hold your breath. I'm not joining you to call for a reduction or ceasation of programs crafted for Seniors after they retire.

Nancy, like you, will have to personally answer for what she has done or advocated. I've made it very clear that I do not agree with the present Social Security system. I have also made it clear that until something else comes along, we're stuck with it. This is the reality.

You're clearly NOT alone in your opinions on this
