So you want to support those that gave the big bonuses to the crooks.
As long as the government doesnt miss your check, right?
So you think I don't deserve my social security I first paid into social security in 1950 when I was a sophomore in high school:
Began as paper boy in 1944...I was nine years old. Pay $3.60 per week
Began to mow lawns in 1946. I was eleven years old. Averaged $20 per week during summers
Continued both papers and mowing and began to buy my own clothes when I was fourteen
went in debt for my first car before I was able to legally drive it
Began working at a full service garage when I was barely sixteen
Worked 40 hrs junior and senior year HS and 60 hours during summers...$0.60 per hour
Hired at a Uranium processing plant in 1952...rotating shift...Pay $1.71 per hour
Worked five years and was drafted into the army infantry Pay...$73 per month
Returned in 1959 and continued my job as process operator pay $3.10 per hour
The company gave me seniority credit for the time I was in the army, continued in national guards
I play keyboards and piano so I was drawing checks from three places when my kids were young. My regular job, the national guards and playing when I could with small bands and combos. Discharged from guards in 1964 as a tank commander on an M-48 Medium Patton Tank
Was laid off because of seniority in February 1961 but relocated to the data processing center where they were installing a new $2.5 million main frame computer. Continued to work rotating shift work. Took a $200 a month cut...about 30%.
Worked about 18 months, learned to program in C T, SPS and Fortran 1 and made shift supervisor. With overtime about $700 a month.
In 1968 was set up to computer operations supervisor over three shifts and 40 employees. Pay...approximately $800 a month but worked straight days and no overtime
Our center had $66 million of computing and telecommunications equipment installed on 18,000 sq. ft. of floating floor. Our power bill to TVA was over half a million dollars per year and the center required over 400 tons of refrigeration. We installed Oak Ridge's first super computer...the Cray XMP 2/4. We later upgraded to a 4.
25 years later I retired after 41 years with the same company. Good pension and at age 62 began to draw social security...about $48,000 per year total. My wife has a similar career path and between the two of us and her part time job we make about $75,000 per year.
We both have a high school education but I did complete an electronics school which lasted about two and a half years in the mid 1960's.
We have a 4br brick rancher with 220ft. lake frontage. I have a dock, well pump in the lake with six well spaced outlets for irrigation. I have a pontoon boat with a 115hp Evinrude engine and we hit the lake every once in a while for a little fishing etc.
The only people I see who are trying to take my social security away from me are goddamned Republicans.
What eveidence do you have that Republicans are trying to take away your social security?
Either put up of shut up!!
