This is evil. Many senior citizen have only SS to live on. Just a few dollars could be the difference between having a roof or a bridge over their heads

It’s pretty obvious to me that Herr Leader wants old people (any what number constitutes ‘old’?) dead.
I bet he’s already got the plans from Dachau ready to go. The difference being, his version of a death camp will be “green”.

Yeah ... it’s just awful that people would be expected to pay back money that they owe.

Yet illegals get free edu and benes. How special.

This is not an Obama era law. The question is whether or not people should be allowed to stiff the gov't. I was taught that if you owe money, you need to pay it.
The more onerous part of this, and I am speculating, is that if you declare bankruptcy, then you still owe the gov't its money. That is the part that disturbs me greatly. Someone that goes through bankruptcy should be cleared. The gov't should not have its hooks into you for all time.

For abusers and deadbeats, yes, for sure.
But veterans? For medical care? That is wrong.
And the illegals get whatever they want? Ass backwards.

Me thinks there is more to this than the eye sees. Maybe forcing families to take care of the elderly. Or are we going to see a return of the POOR HOUSES.$750= $9000 per year. I’m sure one of Zeros Tsars have a solution for this.
The 2009 Poverty Guidelines for the
48 Contiguous States and the District of Columbia Persons in family Poverty guideline
1 $10,830
2 14,570
3 18,310
4 22,050
5 25,790
6 29,530
7 33,270
8 37,010
For families with more than 8 persons, add $3,740 for each additional person.

I wonder if this would pertain to defaulted Fed backed mortgages?

Yeah, it’s terrible.
Money is free and should be taken from taxpayers and given to people who need it.

It's not just "green", it's Soylent Green.

I don’t know about you ... but I have contributed a fortune to SS. As far as owing money. Apparently you have never been through an IRS audit. Those people are the epidome of evil. LOTS of people wind up owing the gubmint money due to an unfair audit.

You missed the point. People who have owed the US money for more than 10 years now have to pay it back. Yes, even a Veteran, who has dodged paying a debt still has to pay it. I agree that veterans are not always treated fairly -- let's solve that problem -- but let's not let veterans, or anybody else for that matter, dodge their obligations.
Be careful about throwing in the illegal alien issue into this. I can use the unfairness (Ass backwards)argument that you propose to justify just about any social policy. "Illegal aliens get free healthcare and education. Therefore I should get a free home, or at least a tax credit since I am a US citizen." That line of thinking is absurd.
Look at each issue on its own merits and solve, or not solve, each problem. But don't lump them together. That's liberal-think.

That’s nice.
They borrowed money from you and me. They owe it to you and me. They need to pay it back.
Not complex.
