Social Security to start cashing Uncle Sam's IOUs

[drone]

I believe there are two retarded wars going on - ending them would free up a lot of cash. There's also a bloated defense budget on the loose, more than ready for some of those deep cuts previously reserved for poor people.

Ah, but what about the first requirement?

not enough. and i would rather have a strong military than social security.

An easy thing to say for the middle class.

Not that easy to say when your single mom was a junkie and you're still mentally unstable because you got raped by three 40-year olds at age 9.

yeah real common place example, the single mother was enough. what did you just watch Precious.

That is opinion based upon your own bias that government cant handle anything, therefor anything broken will become irreparable. I'm getting tired of modern day conservatives spouting their talking points as facts.

That is My opinion based on numbers that it is nigh on impossible to even reform without making people completely pissed off and impossible to sustain for much longer at this rate.

Im talking about older people already in the program or about to enter it. Do you know how powerful AARP is in America. Thats the problem until a pres or someone powerful says i dont care about reelection this needs to be fixed and all of congress and senate agree with him there is no fixing it. so you go find me a representative democracy that has those kinds of balls.
