So when seniors default on credit payments, get thrown out of their house/apartment/trailer guess who will be blamed.
These political maggots can pay out hundreds of BILLIONS per year in direct and indirect costs to educate, feed, medicate and otherwise support ILLEGAL ALIENS but they feel they must cut Social Security to real citizens....we know what the game here is. Pure filthy politics — the politics of fright and intimidation.
What goes around, will come around.
If the U. S. defaults on debt obligations (bonds), then there is no longer any moral obligation for taxpayers to pay taxes.
Awww, They shouldn’t worry.
Politicians of all stripes and levels have no doubt been closely watching the example of Prichard, Alabama. They officially ran out of money two years ago and stopped paying pensions. We have John Stossel’s latest to show that Prichard somehow still manages to pay everybody else.
The city’s retirees just suck it up, struggle on somehow, or suffer and die in silence with some desultory protesting.
So far the Mayor and town council have not been impeached, voted out of office or even assassinated.
Go figure, I’m sure, after due consideration, our solons are not so afraid of having a few elder mobs beating on their limos with placards for a while.
The Republicans will be blames, the seniors will be at fault. Social Security (An unconstitution, ponzi scheme), was to be a supplement to one’s own retirement plans. Those who supported the plan rather than abolishing it, are now finding out what they should have known all along: “DON’T TRUST POLITICIANS WITH YOUR MONEY” and “YOU CAN’T SPIN FLAX INTO GOLD.”
The next lesson up (for those that didn’t learn it young), “Take care of your kids, someday they’ll have to take care of YOU.”
Social Security is coming down one way or another. And thank goodness, it’s about time. Communism NEVER works. You ALWAYS run out of OPM.
Except for defense and a few other things, there is no moral obligation now.
Stopped right there. The author is clearly clueless.
But that would make too much sense.
Basically...Federal Gov’mt as currently operated, is a liability to the States and We the People.
Especially considering Soros can get Kapos on the cheap from AARP.
The funds to pay Social Security have been put in a lock box and are all available for many years to come!!!
“These political maggots can pay out hundreds of BILLIONS per year in direct and indirect costs to educate, feed, medicate and otherwise support ILLEGAL ALIENS but they feel they must cut Social Security to real citizens....we know what the game here is.”
We sure do, it’s called “Vote buying with other people’s money.” The politicians did it for decades, buying the “citizen vote” paid for by future debts, then they did it by funding it through foreigners’ credit. Now they’re doing it by printing money which will bring down the entire system.
End ALL social welfare programs, and “PRESTO!” you end the vote buying. No evil redistribution of wealth=no political Robin Hooding. The production class ALWAYS has paid for the elites and the poor. The elite take the money from the productive (be they rich or not), and line their pockets and give what’s left to the poor to keep them in power. It has NEVER changed. Which is why true conservatives are never fooled by the plan, it’s as old as the War in Heaven.
BIG REASONS
BILLIONS FOR JIHAD!
Obama’s 2009 Supplemental Appropriations for Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Pandemic Flu was revised and “passed by the full committee.”
It gives billions http://creepingsharia.wordpress.com/2009/05/13/obamas-supplemental-bill-passes-gives-billions-to-enemies/
of U.S. taxpayer dollars to countries and entities that support Sharia law and/or harbor, hide and support those who want to destroy the U.S. and our allies.
Read the summary from David Obey’s office that was quietly released last week with nary a word from any media.
• $3.6 billion, matching the request, to expand and improve capabilities of the Afghan security forces
• $400 million, as requested, to build the counterinsurgency capabilities of the Pakistani security forces
• Afghanistan: $1.52 billion, $86 million above the request
• West Bank and Gaza: $665 million in bilateral economic, humanitarian, and security assistance for the West Bank and Gaza

• Egypt: $360 million, $310 million above the request, including $50 million for economic assistance, $50 million for border security, and $260 million for security assistance
• Pakistan: $1.9 billion, $591 million above the request

• International Food Assistance: $500 million, $200 million above the request, for PL 480 international food assistance to alleviate suffering during the global economic crisis
• Refugee Assistance: $343 million, $50 million above the request, …including humanitarian assistance for Gaza. Funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency programs in the West Bank and Gaza is limited to $119 million (Note: Gaza = Hamas)
• Disaster Assistance: $200 million to avert famines and provide life-saving assistance during natural disasters and for internally displaced people around the world, including Somalia, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, the Middle East and South Asia

peacekeeping operations, including an expanded mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and a new mission in Chad and the Central African Republic
• Department of Justice: $17 million, matching the request, for counter-terrorism activities and to provide training and assistance for the Iraqi criminal justice system
The mainstream media remains silent on this but the International News has now picked up the story http://www.thenews.com.pk/top_story_detail.asp?Id=22164
— and then there is Obama’s $108 billion IMF bailout scheme http://michellemalkin.com/2009/05/13/obamas-100-billion-imf-bailout-scheme/
in addition to the Supplemental.
And THIS is what Obama is doing to American taxpayers:

.
So...
We take away the Social Security from those who,
for the most part, have contributed to it
all their working lives
But we keep open the utterly parasitic:
Dept. of Education
Internal Revenue Service (Fair Tax)
Separate Health plans for Federal Workers, and
Aggressive retirement plans for federal workers
Unionized Federal Workers
Most of National Institute of Health
Grants to other Countries
Pet projects of Congress Critters
ATF
Dare I say, If necessary, much of Military
But No, they have to pull the rug out from the elderly
From a plan they have, for the most part,
have individually paid into in the past
Despicable
How dare he threaten us!! Don't pay Congress for a while makes much more sense!! And those Congressmens' expense accounts?? Forget paying them for a while.
If you don't create jobs and get rid of stupid programs like Head Start etc...there will NEVER be enough money.
