"Today’s seniors are the richest, most pampered, most spoiled bunch of parasites in the history of the world. Let them pay for their own health care."

Today's seniors worked hard for the money...a$$hole. Many of us have lived as though we wouldn't see one thin dime from social security...a$$hole. Many of us knew early on that SS, Medicare, Medicaid, etc. was not sustainable...a$$hole.

Outstanding reply, barb!

I'm 56, I have Leukemia and I have paid $200,000 into Social Security and Medicare over my lifetime.

IF I live another six years I will apply for Social Security and get about $1500 a month, maybe a little more.

IF I make it to 65, I get Medicare, unless Obama puts me on the Permanently Disabled and Not Worth the Cost American Citizen Sucker List.

Of course, IF I was allowed to keep all that money and invest it for the past 40 years, I would have an asset in the Millions of Dollars that I could enjoy right now.
