https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-tells-republicans-may-begin-162457862.html Trump says his second term project will be cutting social security and medicare to make up for the tax cuts he gave himself and his buddies.
You mean to say, some senators claim Trump said he might be willing to cut social security and medicare if he is reelected. You do know what hearsay is, right?
Doesn't matter too much, since it aint going to happen unless Trump wins, AND the R's take back the house. Neither looks likely at this point. barfo
Get a job, work hard, set up your own IRA, etc., and the rest takes care of itself. Do we absolutely need Social Security? I'm sure some grandfathering and other similar tweaks would take effect, but still. As far as Medicare goes, I have no problems privatizing that. Neither does someone else. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/29/kamala-harriss-medicare-for-all-plan-keeps-private-insurance.html
Sure, i hear he say it. Thus hear say He's been wanting to gut it pretty much from the beginning as he needs to cover his massive tax cuts for the rich and large corpormations
Do we really need child labor laws either? If the kids want to earn a little money, let them. And workplace safety rules - let's remove them. Our workers are smart enough to look out for themselves. They can get a different job if they think it's unsafe. And do we really need the 13th amendment anymore? Slavery isn't such a big issue nowadays. Let's let the market decide. And finally, is there some reason we aren't allowed to burn witches anymore? They are everywhere now, a few fires would definitely help thin the herd. barfo
Social security comes from people having jobs and working hard. People have worked their whole lives to be told they aren't gettibg social security to retire? You may have enough money to not need it. Good for you. But, there are millions who rely on that. Yes, it is needed.
So you're refusing your medicare and social security checks upon retirement? Glad you have that option....I worked with the disabled before retiring...an accident working hard can put you in a wheelchair for 40 years...wife leaves..takes the house...guts the bank account.....PTSD vets......sure...they could all just play the stockmarket and invest in IRAs....if they had expendable income to begin with.and no child support payments or alimony..welcome to American social science....some seniors develop dementia or alzheimers...let's just let them fend for themselves because they didn't work hard enough eh? Took care of a guy who had a life changing stroke at 52....point being...shit happens...and for those who avoid all these pitfalls in the road...count your blessings
It'd be nice to get back something from the program I will have been paying into for 45-50 years when I retire. I'd have been able to put a lot more into my IRA if I'd received that 6.2% instead of it going to that ponzi scheme.
Young people with diagnosed mental illnesses get about 400 a month from disabled services …..take that away and then talk about addressing mental illness in public places like malls...etc Greed is not an excuse for lacking empathy or contributing to a healthy society for families to go out without getting shot at school or the mall...Trump shows no empathy towards poor or disabled people....he even insults disabled people. There are plenty of places to trim fat in our economy but the working class or those without expendable incomes are not where you make up the deficit
They dont care about helping people. They just want to get them out of their way. Then when they are a "problem" they yell at everyone else to fix the problem they created. They are fucking greedy idiots. They know who they are. Care about people, you fucks.
"The Social Security Administration estimates that 21% of married couples and 43% of single seniors rely on Social Security for 90% or more of their income. According to a 2015 Gallup poll, 36% of near-retirees say they expect Social Security to be a major source of income once they retire."
