I THINK SHE IS BIG TIME TICKED OFF!
(Not my foul language)

I don't think TICKED OFF really covers it!!!!

Alan Simpson, Republican Senator from Wyoming and co-chair of President Obama's deficit commission, calls senior citizens the "Greediest Generation" as he compared Social Security to a Milk Cow with 310 million teats.

Here's a response in a letter from Patty Myers, a career school teacher in Montana ... I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is!


"Hey Alan, let's get a few things straight!!!!!

by Patty Myers

As a career politician, you have been on the public dole (tit) for FIFTY YEARS.

I have been paying Social Security taxes for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63).

My Social Security payments, and those of millions of other Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid the account and give OUR money to a bunch of zero losers in return for votes, thus bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that would make Bernie Madoff proud.

Recently, just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, you and "your ilk" pulled the proverbial football away from millions of American seniors nearing retirement and moved the goalposts for full retirement from age 65 to age 67. NOW, you and your "shill commission" are proposing to move the goalposts YET AGAIN.

I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying into Medicare from Day One, and now "you morons" propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because "you idiots" mismanaged other parts of the economy to such an extent that you need to steal our money from Medicare to pay the bills.

I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying income taxes our entire lives, and now you propose to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because you "incompetent bastards" spent our money so profligately that you just kept on spending even after you ran out of money. Now, you come to the American taxpayers and say you need more to pay off YOUR debt.
To add insult to injury, you label us "greedy" for calling "bullshit" to your incompetence. Well, Captain Bullshit, I have a few questions for YOU:

How much money have you earned from the American taxpayers during your pathetic 50-year political career?

At what age did you retire from your pathetic political career, and how much are you receiving in annual retirement benefits from the American taxpayers?

How much do you pay for YOUR government provided health insurance?

What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare benefits are you proposing in your disgusting deficit reduction proposal, or as usual, have you exempted yourself and your political cronies?
It is you, Captain Bullshit, and your political co-conspirators called Congress who are the "greedy" ones. It is you and your fellow nutcase thieves who have bankrupted America and stolen the American dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers. And for what? Votes and your job and retirement security at our expense, you lunk-headed leech.

That's right, sir. You and yours have bankrupted America for the sole purpose of advancing your pathetic, political careers. You know it, we know it, and you know that we know it.

And you can take that to the bank, you miserable son-of-a-b**ch. NO, I did not stutter.

If you like the way things are in America delete this. If you agree with what a Montana citizen Patty Myers says, please PASS IT ON!!!!

P.S.

And stop calling Social Security benefits "entitlements" WHAT AN INSULT!!!!

I have been paying in to the SS system for 45 years. It's my money; give it back to me the way the system was designed and stop patting yourself on the back like you are being generous to be dolling out these monthly checks.

It is an entitlement.  

Anybody on unemployment 5 years ago was only eligible for 26 weeks unemployment.  Today there are people that have been collecting it for 2+ years.  I've continued to pay into unemployment though I am not using it, and if there ever comes the day that I become unemployed I will only receive 26 weeks, I will not receive the benefit of 104 weeks like many today.  

Patty needs to stop bitching and understand how government works and pass her experience to the next generation so they do not get duped into giving their money today for empty promises tomorrow.  It sucks getting manipulated by politicians with your own money.  It's very simple - tomorrow is never guaranteed, no matter how sweet sounding the politicians words are that tell you so.

Not surprised you two ignoramuses agree that Social Security was created and  is manipulated by the government, and still don't see it as an entitlement.  

Don't worry, you never have to worry about hearing that popping sound.  Your head has been up your a** for so long the skin on you a** and neck has actually grafted together.  It's in there for life.

You still have a hard time comprehending words that are written in front of you.
I said her take on GOVERNMENT...nothing about "entitlement"....
Learn to read...it will help.
You are right...there will be no pop becuase your head is permanently stuck in the hole.

At least take credit for being one of the Kings of BITCHIN'.

Your reading comprehension is very poor.  Her b**ch was about politicians NOT the government program.  She LOOOVES her Social Security.  She wants her cheese.

BTW dummy, read my original post in this thread, I responded to her claim that Sociaal Security isn't an ENTITLEMENT.  But as usual, you moved the bar to make your worthless contributions.

i think that the ss tax should be raised! these poor seniors won't be able to feed themselves or fill their gas tanks with the little they get from ss.  If they rent or if they are lucky enough to have a 'paid off home'....their checks will barely cover the taxes and insurance or rent. Add in utilities and the cost of medicare which is increasing yearly....they will ALL be living in poverty.

Every working person needs to give their fair share and cough up extra out of their checks. it's a social program and the need is greater now more than ever!!

You and Patty can go back to bitchin about how the politicians ruined your senior welfare system.  

Joebxr, you can collect your Social Security now, since your IQ is low enough to qualify you for permanent disability.

Here, this is for whiny Patty...Let's look at just some of the changes made to Social Security over the years.

Quoted Text
August 1, 1956 The Social Security Act was amended to provide monthly benefits to permanently and totally disabled workers aged 50-64; to pay child's benefits to disabled children aged 18 or over of retired or deceased workers, if their disability began before age 18; it lowered to age 62 the retirement age for widows and female parents.

August 1, 1956 The Servicemen's and Veterans' Survivor Benefits Act amended the Social Security Act by extending regular contributory coverage under old-age and survivors insurance to members of the uniformed services on active duty after 1956. Military service wage credit provisions were extended to the end of 1956.

August 3, 1956 Public Law 973 was signed. It established a system of survivor benefits for Federal judges and provided for payment of annuities to widows and dependent children of judges.

August 7, 1956 The Railroad Retirement Act was amended to increase all benefits except those affected by the "old age, and survivors insurance minimum guarantee," and those under the "average monthly compensation" minimum.

November 1956 Social Security retirement Benefits became payable to women at age 62.

December 28, 1956 The Secretary of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare approved the plan submitted by the Tennessee Valley Authority for extending coverage under the Old-Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance program to employees covered by its retirement system.

January 1957 The first disability payments were paid under OASDI, when benefits for this month went to retired or deceased workers' dependent children aged 18 or over, where a permanent and total disability had begun before age 18. The increase in OASDI contribution rates became effective; 2 1/4 % each for employers and employees and 3 3/8% for self-employed.
