"Tell ya what, just give me my money back from what SS and medicare/medicaid has taken and I won't take ANY SS or medicare.medicade."
Better yet, I will take the hit and just forfeit what they have already taken and if they just let me opt out now, I will not file any claim for SS or medicare......
It is amazing to me that now that the Dems are in power, everyone is complaining that GWB is doing nothing about SS reform, yet when he was trying to get SS reform everyone complained that he was going to make old ladies eat cat food. All he wanted to do was allow people to CHOSE whether to start an account with a SMALL percentage of the SS witholding.
Yet the talking heads convinced the American sheeple that private ownership of their retirement was a bad thing. Better to rely on mommy and daddy in DC than to take personal responsibility. That is one of the many reasons why I am convinced the Republic is dead!

Hey. It's not his job now. He's the President, and his party in in the Minority. It is squarely up to Sen. RealEstate from Nevada and Grandmother Pelosi to fix this.
That is one of the many reasons why I am convinced the Republic is dead!

I would really like to believe that you are wrong, but then I would really like to believe in Santa Clause, I just can't convince myself. The Republic died years ago, it just hasn't been officially announced, hell most people don't even know we ever were supposed to have a Republic.
