“It will be my objective to phase out Social Security." - Sen. Mike Lee says the quiet part out loud.

[Mr Natural]

It's not our fault they keep raiding the account.

Seniors are the biggest voting bloc in the country. They won't stand for any shenanigans.

If they were stupid enough to vote for Trump, they’ll be stupid enough to vote away their social security.

Do you want 60 year Olds having to work? Ummm nope. That's wrong and anto Christian anti American.

When in history have 60-year-olds not worked?

So use email up and discard. Nice.

 

[Rambunctious]

Where is that plan? Some wealthy guy thinks he had it? Not a chance.

This is not going to happen over night... its looking forward towards the day when the current program goes belly up... you need to ask yourself... what then?....

My son just retired at 54. I told him to use his skills vs his emoyer. He retired without informing his manager but did inform his HR. He never showed up for a scheduled meeting with s corporate client. I've never been prouder.

Try that again, make sense this time.

 

[initforme]

Use people up, then discard them. How wonderful we are.

 

[BULLDOG]

And you will get it... your grandchildren however will have a better plan...

Get back with me when you come up with an actual plan, instead of a concept of a plan.

 

[sparky]

I have met Mike and know him slightly. He means get rid of it, period, and nothing to replace it.

well then tell Mike if he's not up to giving us 'our' $$, we'll not pay out taxes to him Horsey

~S~

I will and you get back to me on a plan to save the current system... which is going broke fast....

 

[sparky]

What do you think?

Do you realize these a**holes have a golden gub'mit paid parachute Lakota ?

~S~

You're the one who wants to force people to retire.

 

[initforme]

Nope. You're the one who thinks people working longer somehow helps. They shouldn't work for the good of the nation.

 

[whoisit]

I thought SSI aka Social Security Insurance was what workers paid into a program that gave them partial security when retired or disabled.
Not for those who never paid into it or stopped working although not disabled,
much less illegals or those who never worked, unless spouse or independents of one who did pay into SSI.
Now anyone can collect SSI work history or not.

Never happen

People working longer help fund Social Security.
Forcing them to retire early and collect benefits longer will bankrupt Social Security.
If people like to work or need to work why do assholes like you know better?

Butt out.

 

[justoffal]

How does that solve the problem?
If a rich guy pays twice as much in and gets twice as much out, it still goes broke.

Well no....there is a maximum payout regardless of pay in.

Retirement age is now 67 asshole.

 

[Carl in Michigan]

It the basis of my retirement and that of many others.

Add a pension or a 401 and you do well
Without SS I’d be fucked and so would a LOT of people

Only because you were forced to depend on it.
