kvkkc1, you wrote.....

"... I still think SS and Medicare need to go
only to the truly needy, and means tested, regardless of
what was paid in. The old folks who paid in wouldn't be
hurt any worse than you or I who have no choice but to
pay in. Let them make their contributions. I for one
am tired of the pandering to seniors. They made
sacrifices, but so do all of us. I don't feel the need
to pay for millionaire seniors health care or prescriptions.
If politicians would stop prostituting themselves to
seniors for their votes, we wouldn't be in the
fix we're in."

I agree.
