The president that H lies about voting for raised SS taxes and wanted to cut spending
The people that H did vote for accused him of wanting to kill grandma
Bush 1 broke his promise to raise taxes like a good little soldier and the people that H votes for used that broken promise to elect tax and spend Bill

Not sure if he’s still around.
If he is, please advise him to donate your portion of his estate to the federal government.
Ever consider another option: less government and much fewer government employees.

Social Security? I have maxed out my contributions for 35 years. I am going to get a fraction of what I should which means I am paying for something that I will never see. I hardly call that an entitlement by rat definition. Its my money that I was forced by the government to put into a poor investment ponzi scheme.

Hey HH, it isn't your money. You did shit to earn it or pay taxes on it the first time. Keep your fucking hands out of others pockets. The capital gains force many to liquidate the asset, that may not bother you because rats like to take other peoples money but it isn't right. Besides, the total collected isn't even going to move the needle when we are talking about rats spending trillions upon trillions.
How fucking vapid one must be to be a rat and believe that forcing people to sell the family farm so that rat politicians can piss the money away is a good and just thing to advocate?
The government never needs to increase taxes. They need to cut spending.
Principled!
Isn't that just like a rat. Trying to tell me that my own money for retirement is an "entitlement". Jeezus you are fucked up in the head. -
If you were a titled noble in old Europe, you were entitled to privileges and income that weren't available to the common man. Like a belief that one is deserving of or entitled to certain privileges. The left loves to corrupt words and so the dazzler thinks that since you and I got screwed by social security and medicare we should somehow volunteer to give up "our entitlements" because its like free money to us.

Yeah, and your side wants to increase that dramatically by giving it to everyone. Fucking idiot.HHusky said:In 2020, the share of U.S. federal budget spent on Medicare was 12 percent, a four-times increase since 1970. If current laws stand, the share of federal spending on Medicare could rise to one fifth of total budget by 2051.
