Debt Commission Report Targets Social Security, Medicare
Wednesday, November 10, 2010
By the way, those of you with loved ones (parents, grandparents, family, friends, etc. -- Let's not leave out children and disabled) whose support and survival depends on Social Security and Medicare, will find the burden falling to them.
When their parents, grandparents, etc., have no money to pay rent (or the nursing home bill), are they going to turn them away from their own homes and out onto the street? Are they going to let them starve? What about the medications keeping them healthy, much less alive?
What about those on Social Security and Medicare with no families?
Bush's tax cuts? Borrowing another $700 billion, adding to the deficit so that the rich can get even richer???
Continue wars that are costing us a fortune but making the rich even richer, while making us enemies everywhere?
Keep US military bases all over the world? Keep redundancies and pork in the Pentagon's budget? With John Boehner as Speaker of the House, count on it.
One example of pork that Boehner recently voted for involves the F-35 jet. Every time one of these planes is built, they build two engines. They make an extra engine just in case you lose the first one. The Pentagon has been begging forever, "Please, can we stop building two engines?", and the answer is always the same "No", because they're built in John Boehner's district.
It is 'Third World Nation'-time unless Americans stand up to both political parties and say NO!
