This government is just plain evil.
They take 40-50% of people’s income and their families have to do without.

Give you an example, when you buy a loaf of bread at the store, it’s been
taxed over 30%,cars,30%,phone bill 30%,
cable bill tax 30%,gas and electric. I
could go on and on and on put all of these charges are hidden from the public
Now they want to take some of social security away from people. The
government already took the cost of food and energy out of the CPI basket so they
don’t have to give the high cost of living to people to keep up with the cost of
inflation. Before they make any changes to social security, they should make
changes to the money we give out to the United Nations and all other foreign
aide.

Then the social security comes out of my check which is 8%. My company pays
the other 8%.

If the government would have let me kept my money, I could have invested it
at 4-5% a year, I would have over a million dollars.

What does the government do with all that money that people don’t collect?
Like my sister, that worked all of her life and never collected one social
security check.

She died at 55 with no children

I believe we’ve reached the point of taxation without proper representation.

What is the next step?
