For many years, 28% of the money paid to fund my position was withheld for Social Security and pension payments. I had no say in this. I even had to pay federal and state income taxes on much of this. I could have invested that, as I did my other savings, and would have a net worth of an extra million dollars if I had been allowed to do this Everyone in the U.S. pays the same taxes, except for the very wealthy of course, due to republicons tax policies they get a big break. So move to Saudi Arabia or Somalia if you hate paying taxes and hate the U.S. so much

Do you constantly complain about "our bloated entitlement state" because we're spending nearly 2/3 of the federal budget on Medicare and Social Security? John Vosilla does, yet he's a welfare recipient of both programs. I can only assume from his behavior that he's unable to think clearly. Just like yourself, John Vosilla believes he's entitled to these benefits, which is precisely why Republicans call them the Entitlement Programs. If John Vosilla wants to continue complaining about these "bloated entitlement programs" he should at least have the decency to stop insisting he's entitled to these bloated benefits and cut himself off. Does he simply lack self-control over his mouth and his actions? Perhaps he needs to attend an in-patient recovery program for welfare parasites who have a compulsive need to complain about welfare parasites like himself. John Vosilla has even stated the delusion that he is opposed to Reagan's trickle-down tax-breaks -- which he claims began in the year 2000, after John had supported these policies for 30 years, and years after Reagan left office and had terminal Alzheimer's which left him unable to recognize even his own family. John Vosilla is an idiot of the highest order. If a person hates himself and other elderly people that much he needs help. But if he wants to remain a mentally incontinent idiot I will continue to point out the contradiction inherent in his self-hating language.
