The Republicans on Social Security....I frankly have always
found this offensive..... I am FORCED to contribute 7.5% of my salary into the
non-existent 'Social Security Lock Box'..... MY MONEY I EARN!!! And one day -
if I'm alive, the government will dole it back to me in quantities and for a
term yet to be decided (decided not by ME but by the government) Is there
anyone out there who would tolerate a bank taking part of your income, holding
it for 40+ years while paying no interest, and then the bank would tell you
when and how much they would send you each month? I think not!)
Kasich's proposal: John Kasich advocates means testing with
reduced benefits for wealthy seniors. (THIS IS KRAP! It's OUR money, you idiot!
Bill Gates paid IN - Bill Gates should GET BACK! If Gates wants to make a
charitable contribution of his SS, that's HIS decision - NOT the federal
government's)
Cruz's proposal: Ted Cruz suggests a different form of
benefit cut, in which future retirees would receive smaller cost-of-living
adjustments. (THIS IS KRAP, TOO - when's the last time you folks on SS got a
COLA increase that would buy more than a 6-pack of toilet paper?)
Rubio's proposal: Marco Rubio suggests gradually raising the
retirement age at which younger workers like himself become eligible for Social
Security. This is effectively a cut in benefits, since retirees would have
fewer years to collect. (more krapola)
Trump's proposal: Donald Trump argues against any cut in
benefits or increase in taxes, instead relying on faster economic growth to
close the Social Security funding gap. (A rising tide lifts all boats!)
Donald Trump has the best plan.
ReplyDeleteWhen we get a COLA our Medicare payment increases
As a person from Europe I think that Donald Trump would be the best option.
