rebuttal on social security

I agree social security is a rip-off but, don't blame the retired people for the mess. Blame FDR who insisted it be enacted.Blame the waste and red tape in DC that continues aggravate the situation.

It sounds like you want the people with a little money and savings to pay the exhorbitant medical and care costs and let the dead-beats get a free ride from Uncle Sam. No way Jose.
You do not understand capitalism. DC adopted a policy of "cradle to the grave" security wheather the people wanted it or not. All this did was encourage more people to become dead-beats and sycophants.

I think your comments smack a bit of socialism but,evidently, for many years that's all you knew.
