Most seniors I know do not want any deal that reduces their SS or Medicare benefits. Many, many folks hate Obamacare, but support Medicare.

The hoi polloi have spoken. For the time being, all politics comes down to expanding their access to Other People’s Money. But don’t lose heart. Someday very soon there will be no more of Other People’s Money to distribute and the natural order will be restored. After that we can rebuild the USA.

Let me give you some perspective on their thinking.

Medicare was established under the "GREAT SOCIETY" scheme.

Immediately: WE started paying for that PONZI SCHEME, now for over 40 years, paying into it, and now to be shut out is just not right. WE PAID and paid and paid.

We also paid our SS. I wish the younger people would understand this. WE PAID, they took the MONEY right out of our checks, they stole it, that money is OURS, it is owed us and it is not WELFARE.

Now what we do want: WE WANT ALL unnecessary Items to be put on the TABLE. See Sen. Coburns list for starters, then add all the AID TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES who are also our enemy.

In those items ALONE is more than enough money to fund all other already "paid for" necessary & vital spending right here in the U.S.

What GOV't is saying is "Our enemies are worth more than our own people". That is a fact.

Why is it that the "OLD PEOPLE" keep getting crucified by the Gov't and attitudes of the young, we have carried the burden and NOW STILL only have the interest of the young in our minds.

You young need to start attacking GOVERNMENT FIRST before even discussing what us OLD people want or need.
