@pr0ud_americans@MMike70380 There's an old man that has a 1976? Datsun pickup here in fresno that's absolutely immaculate. He drives around with his polka-dot cap smokin' a cigar.
@any_09000 I, seriously can't believe theres people that 1) think this pic is from 1958....., 2) "jeans" ??? SERIOUSLY? Jeans have been around since before 1958. Losing my faith in humanity.
@Murk441 You look like you've had a great life. I have too. I've never been ashamed of who I am. We're all created equally in the eyes of GOD. I hope you find HIM.
Find a way to keep Social Security and Medicare going for the sake of that 92% of our population who need it. Then call it what it is: Our Earned Retirement Income.
Call your legislators.
Concerning Social Security payments, my contributions were made for years on every salary I received. Those jobs may not have always been the work I wanted to be doing at the time, BUT I always had a job. 1 of several..

Just because they borrowed the money doesn't mean that our investments were a charity!
Let's take a stand. We have earned our right to Social Security and Medicare. Demand that our legislators bring some sense into our government.
. And they didn't pay interest on the debt they assumed. And recently they've told us that the money won't support us for very much longer. And now, to add insult to injury, they're calling it a "benefit", as if we never worked to earn every penny of it.
It totaled 15% of our income before taxes.
Congress took our money and used it elsewhere. They forgot (oh yes, they knew) that it was OUR money they were taking. They didn't have a referendum to ask us if we wanted to lend the money to them.
