[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5939716, member: 24302"] You sure like to tell me what I think. I've repeatedly said, now pay attention, that the government should be fiscally responsible and not throw money away as well as eliminate all the fraud, waste, and abuse. Why? So that we can protect the programs in place that benefit everyone. I may not be around in 10 years. Still leaves tens of millions who very much need that SS check. If you guys despise SS so much then don't violate your conscience. Refuse to take it. Don't tell me how hypocritical I am for wanting, needing, and taking my SS if you're going to take it too. You'll get a good deal more than me and you'll also have the benefit of union pensions and 401k's and other investments. Good for you. I need my SS and when it comes in about two weeks I'm going to be thankful I have it. And you know what? I'm going to take that check after my dad passes and go overseas and get treatment because I can't afford healthcare here. May not even afford it with Medicare. I sure hope you guys can maintain your lifestyles without the little bit extra you'd get if I didn't get SS. If not you can always move overseas. I hear uprooting your life and moving is the way to go. [/QUOTE]
