“Sorry, but most Freepers are Boomers and many like me are already collecting S/S. Your ideas won’t play well here. Maybe the freepers who are not Boomers should start their own FR auxiliary site?”
And that’s the problem. Everybody wants spending cut, except for what they think should go to them.
Cut all government spending.
Still don’t get it, huh? I suppose if you had invested with Bernie Madoff or with MF Global you wouldn’t mind getting robbed.
Social Security was/is a compulsory investment plan, not a frivolous government expenditure like foo stams.
Social Security is NOT a gift from government. People were FORCED to pay into it. That money belongs to THEM.
You're whistling Dixie Trumandogz. We Boomers all vote and we will get our way. We will not allow our S/S benefits to be cut. Ha!
You’re right of course. It’s simple arithmetic. In their heart of hearts they know you’re right. They just think they can yell and scream and take the money from someone else.
