Along these lines, do not expect those like myself who are approaching retirement to roll over and play dead and not fight for some return on the money we poured into the system. In the case of my wife and myself, it is approaching a quarter of a million dollars over our working careers.
Don’t misunderstand ... I’m getting close myself , and I think everyone should get all they can get .
The problem has been created over many years , with all this “socialism”.
We need to get over this concept that the “government” has some sort of responsibility to provide for everyone.
We are the “government”.
All these programs need to be brought to a close ... but you can’t just steal from people for years and then brake promises that have been made.
A lot of people could have done quite well for themselves if they hadn’t been forced to donate so much to the government ponzi scheme. And those folks are ENTITELED to be compensated for that.
But we have to stop this train ... it’s heading for a cliff.
