If someone was extorting money from you for protection, you would advocate everyone being extorted. Or am I missing something. Two wrongs make a right?

Your money was wasted. It’s gone. Just because someone robbed you slowly over your lifetime, doesn’t mean everyone forever should be bled over theirs.

Maybe you could get on board with stopping the blood letting?

I wil not apply for benifits if it still exists when I’m “elegible”. Sepecifically, because I know from what methods the benifits would come from.

I am elegible for unemployment while ashore on vacation. I choose not to collect out of principal. I am not unemployed, nor do I need or want the government’s assistance.

Maybe you and some of the other “proponents” here can shop around on the hc exchange for some prosthetic principals.

If two birds flew over and one pooped in your eye and didn't in mine, would that still be okay with you?  If we're going to make this up as we go, we can all have fun.

Sorry, but I'm not going to allow you to guilt me out of an income in my retirement.  Instead I'll just laugh at you for being such an ignorant dolt.

Get on board yourself.  What official movement have you started or joined to change Social Security for future generations?  Tell me what the highlights of your plan are.

Great.  All the more for me.  I applaud those who paid in over forty years and think it's a sin to take their on money back.  Kudos to you.

If you paid in unemployment insurance, benefits are yours to take.  This is rather comical.  "I paid into a life insurance policy for fifty years Bert, but I'll be damned if I'll let my wife collect when I die.  It's a matter of principle."

I'll be happy to do that, once I've seen evidence you've shopped around for a prosthetic brain.
