I'm having trouble wrapping my head around the very likely scenario of people like the Emanuel Brothers and others sitting around a table somewhere saying, "we have to get rid of beneficiaries..."

The elderly aren't one of the dem victim groups. But 25 year olds living on social security disability are - and that group will be protected. If you're old and played by the rules, you can drop dead while working...

IMHO, it’s a part of their earth-worship agenda.

There are some rumors/speculations other places on the net that suggest that we could possibly have a "banking holiday," or even worse in September or October. I shudder to think of the social unrest should it all come crashing down! Perhaps, it is not such a stretch to think about it with all the NLE09 exercises being conducted right now. What are they preparing for? I doubt another Katrina.

I don't want to ruin anyone's weekend, but I ask you all to go to my Thread, and please read all the articles carefully and connect the dots. We all need to be thinking abut how to protect ourselves and our loved onesClick Here

>Unlike the pigs feeding at Uncle Sam’s trough, the people who qualify for Social Security old-age benefits — the ones who’ll benefit from the bailout — have played by the rules and paid Social Security taxes for decades. It would be immoral to tell them, “Sorry, we have to trim your cost-of-living adjustment because we can’t afford it,” while expecting them to continue footing the bill for bailing out imprudent people and institutions.<

AS IF THIS ADMINISTRATION Has any problem doing something Immoral?

... I support ENDING it. Don't steal another dime from my paycheck and fire every worthless bureaucrat currently working for the government that delivers it...

I agree: END IT NOW.

Cut off the SS checks and stop stealing from workers.
