Seniors & Social Security
Rick Naylor Posted 6 months ago
Mr Sen When are you people going to stop referring to Social Security(SS) as an entitlement!! We pay takes for both medicare and SS taxes as part of our pay each paycheck!! You spend it like it was monopoly money. There is suppose to be a Trust Fund, and the full faith an credit of the US Gov. We you guys have destroyed that and have gone as far as saying "No Problem, Let our Credit Rating go to hell, it does not mean a think. Well it does mean something to Americans who work for their money and get shit on for not being rich enough not to need to borrow. Get to work or we will VOTE YOU OUT !

I'm sure you've noticed how low your approval rating is. There is a reason and it's listed below. Why won't you fix it.

Salary of retired US Presidents............. $450,000 FOR LIFE
Salary of House/Senate members ..........$174,000 FOR LIFE
Salary of Speaker of theHouse ..............$223,500 FOR LIFE
Salary ofMajority/Minority Leaders ..... $193,400 FOR LIFE
Average salary of a soldier DEPLOYED IN AFGHANISTAN - $38,000
Average income for seniors on SOCIAL SECURITY -$12,000

I think we found where the cuts should be made!

BUDGET

Senator,

You must be aware the American people are not happy about the runaway spending being supported by both Republicans and Democrats. I for one will not support this behavior due to the fact I, and most of my family and friends don't have the ability to write checks we don't have cash to cover.

Senator DeMint sponsored a spending reduction package this week with two items our Elected Officials need to agree to:

1. Ban congressional earmarks for at least one year so lawmakers can begin to break their addiction to pork-barrel spending.
2. Pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution forcing Congress to balance the federal budget each year.

Will you support these two solutions that I think are the key first step in solving our problems. Come on now, deep down you don't think that spending even money is going to help us do you?
