social security and welfare is unconstitutional. it is not the roll of the federal government to provide charity and welfare.

That’s fine. Give me back the money that has been taken from me for the past 45 years. Just return the stolen amount and I’ll take it from there.

Since I’m going to need it to buy health insurance SOMEWHERE since I am now UNEMPLOYED and not quite old enough for medicare. Where the heck is that free health coverage Zero promised me?

The Supreme Court disagreed with you and Joe Miller back in 1937 in the Helvering v Davis decision.

I agree with you. But what is going on? Obama seems to view the federal government as a charity and welfare machine. So I ask again, what is going on here?

Sounds like the product of the public schools, but your point does not take into consideration that people are forced to pay into Social Security all their lives, so it is not charity. I agree, the Fedeal Government under FDR had no business putting SS into law, forcing the private sector to put money into an account that the Federal Government (need I say under a Socialist parading as a Democrat?) installed with no lock box. In other words, the Feds have been using those moneys for whatever they wanted. If there had been a lockbox, our money would have grown in that saccount, and SS would not be in trouble today.

Agreed, but I’d sure like to see some of that unconstitutional money I’ve paid in copious amounts (yes I pay the full 14% because I’m independent) go to my parents at least. I know I’ll never see a penny of it.
