So, Kenc, can you not appreciate someone else's opinion without agreeing with everything that they believe? That's what we are lacking today. It's all about political party and sides. No one wants to reason.

Don' know mommo , I'll think about it. Why don't you think about it ?

Can't help thinking of Ayn Rand's philosophy's when thinking of Paul Ryan . Of course he deny's it all now. Is it possible he was so stupid he didn't realize what she stood for ?

I removed several posts that were off topic and/or trolling.

Here is another Liberal telling the old people that the Republican's hate social security and if you vote Republican you will lose your social security, They've been spouting this lie for 25 years. They've been saying this since Jimmy Carter was elected. It hasn't happened yet. I started drawing mine 5 months ago. I started paying it in when I was 14 and had to get a workers permit. With the government and economy the way it is yes I would be worried. If the present government doesn't do something about jobs in a couple of decades everybodys going to be without. Im not worried. I'll die before it runs out. I think I deserve it. They took it out of my checks for 48 years. They like to call it an entitlement. If you paid for it in every check for 48 years don't you feel you should get something in return. I get POed at the democrats. They used this to scare my old mom and dad into voting for them. We've had several Republican administrations and Im drawing mine now.

lol....call it what you will, but my retirement has been in the hands of "wall street" for 20 years now and I have more faith in it being there when I retire than I do SS. Actually, it's what I'm going to depend on in place of SS.


I guess you're referring to a 401k. Remember what it was when Obama took office? I remember mine. It had gone to almost nothing. If McCain and Palin had won, it would have probably gone to negative nothing, since he said he would continue Bush's policies.

So, mommotwo, do you think sending 80 year grannies a check to buy their own insurance is a good idea?

That's Ryan and Foxx's idea.

IN A 2005 SPEECH BEFORE THE ATLAS SOCIETY CELEBRATING THE 100 TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF HIS MENTOR, AYN RAND, HE STATED THAT SOCIAL SECURITY WAS "A SOCIALIST-BASED SYSTEM."

KEEP ON TRYING!

Wait a minute, that's enough!!! Social Security won't be gone, as you put it. Privatizing it means putting it in the hands of Wall St to manage for you. I guarantee you people will have MORE money to retire on, even after the small transactions fees paid to the bankers.

After all, if you can't trust Wall St, who CAN you trust?

What do you have against social security and medicare, mommotwo?
Oh the normal stuff. I've paid into it, but it's gonna be gone before I need it.


If republicans gain control again, you can count on it, being gone, that is.

You may not like his politics because of his party, kenc, but he's extremely intelligent. When you lose the ability to disagree with someone without giving them props where they are clearly due, then you lose a lot of credibility.

"A GREAT LEADER."

IN THE OVER FIFTEEN YEARS THAT HE HAS BEEN IN THE HOUSE, HE HAS INTRODUCED TWO BILLS THAT HAVE BECOME LAW. ONE OF WHICH, WAS RE-NAMING A POST OFFICE IN HIS DISTRICT.

A REAL LEADER FOR SURE!
