Because SS and Medicare are where the biggest liabilities are.

It is not relevant that they are the biggest liabilities as some here seem to be ignoring the fact that we paid into SS. I think it sucks but I like millions of other were forced to pay into it. I laid out a good plan IMO for cuts yet you want to cut something we actually paid for?

If AND ONLY EFFEN WHEN ALL FOREIGN AID IS ELIMINATED AND FOREIGN MILITARY BASES ARE CLOSED AND WE CUT FUNDING OF THE UN should we start looking at domestic programs.

Why not shutter permanently the departments of energy (they have done less than nothing to make us energy independent), department of education (this is a state responsibility and the effen feds have not educated a single child).

If you want to eliminate SS and Medicare for those entering the system fine, I'd support that! But if you want to take what I was FORCED to pay into for my entire working career, then you will be looking at one of the reasons for the 2nd Amendment.
