SS is an entitlement paid out of the general fund. The SS taxes you were forced to pay at gunpoint were stolen and put into the general fund and spent.
That’s reality.”””’
PLEASE explain in very complete detail how that is anywhere near the fault of the seniors who paid into the fund for all of their lives.
Democrats stole the money out of the Social Security fund when they started the massive Welfare system under President Johnson. This was the most massive wealth transfer ever in the USA.
Where do you think they got the money to pay for all the welfare, food stamps, WIC, Section 8 housing, free medical, free legal, free meals at school and most recently-—FREE Obamaphones??????
They stole the funds that all of us who were working had paid into and they kept on doing so.
SO-—PLEASE explain how any of us seniors are responsible for this empty fund?

Most of us here are not, but many others are.
Low information voters can also be seniors and many of them date all the way back to voting for FDR. They will vote for the shiniest bauble on the shelf which in this case are slimy politicians who always promise them the moon while they are busy stealing their grandkid's pabulum and cementing their own power and fortunes in Washington.
It is also the fault of the Gibsmedats and the Free Sh!t Army who vote for these politicians.
Please don't get me going on the fault of the "news media" in all this...
SS and other government taxes are nothing to many politicians but a vote buying scheme. These politicians should be hanging from lamp posts instead of hanging in fancy bars and planning new conquests with each other and the K Street crowd.
In a more just world, they still might...
