Hospitals treat people irrespective of their ability to pay. Your neighbor just happens to be someone with a conscience. Unfortunately, too many people aren't wired that way. Liberals have told them they are owed free medical free housing free food. We need to change that mindset.

Everyone that can't make it a couple of weeks while we recertify actual qualification can starve for all I fricking care.
Tired of producers playing Santa Claus for parasites. Merry Christmas producers. Go frick yourself parasites.
Any and all government social programs should be administered at the state level. The more money you take away from the federal government the less power they have.

That's bit extreme. I didn't "donate" a lifetime of payments into the SS system to get nothing. We do need a safety net because there are people who temporarily need assistance. Emphasis on the temporary part.
Most of the people who want to axe Social Security and Medicare haven't been paying into the programs for +40 years.
As I always say, if the federal government would cut me and the wife a check for $1.25 million to cover all the payroll taxes we and our employers have paid into SS and Medicare, then we're good and it can be shut it down.

You knowingly created and contributed to a pyramid scheme. You are owed nothing.

SS is not an entitlement.
But social safety nets guarantee failure. As long as the government funds people that fail the government will guarantee failure.

If the Dems win the presidency they will pass Means Testing. If you have a net worth of 1 Million at age 65 you forfeit all of your SS.

I had no choice but contribute by federal law. Medicare and SS have been taken from my paychecks for the past 40 years.

Sick of these young arse dumbasses on this website talking shite about social security. My parents paid into that system for over 50 years and you dumbasses just think it's ok for them to take that away from them? Meanwhile there's fraud happening on every fricking corner you turn in this country.. but hey, let's gid rid of social security!! It's a burden on our country's financials!!!

We could get several billion a year by not sending money to Israel. Could get even more if we stopped bombing/invading countries on their behalf.

That would take our government 10 years, conservatively.

One day Atlas will shrug, and all Hell will break lose.
