over 25 years. that is one month a year for 25 years when we are all living longer and better lives. secondly we would need to have social security for those who are making over 200,000 dollars a year in retirement income and who have 4, $5 million in liquid assets. they don t need that social security checks. social security is meant to be to make sure no one worked hard and played by the rules and paid into the system grows old in poverty in america. it will bankrupt our system or lead to problems neither one we want in this country. governor huckabee you say changing entitlements the same governor crist tee is talking about would be breaking a promise to the american people. you say you can keep those programs, save social security save medicare without those kinds of reforms through a fare tax which is a broad tax on
security. nobody in this country is on social security because they made the decision when they were starting work at 14 that they wanted to trust some of their money with the government. the government took it out of their check whether they want them to or not. if a person goes to 65 they will spend 51 years with a government reaching into their pocket at every paycheck. here s the point. whose fault is that it the system is screwed up? is it the recipients or the government? if congress wants to mess with the retirement program, why don t we let them start by changing their retirement program and not have one instead of talking about getting rid of social security and medicare that was robbed $700 billion to pay for obamacare? it is always the government figures they can do this off the backs of people many of whom are poor and depend on that money. i think it is lying to the people and stealing from them and we should not be doing it. chris?
