Those of you who are retired and receiving social security and Medicare or VA medical care, are you ready to give up those benefits? Go on your own? Maybe pay as you go? Pay on the lay away plan any surgical treatment needed?
I am talking especially to those of you who are registered Republican and plan to vote only Republican. I am saying this because your party leadership wants to eliminate your SSI benefits. “Too costly.” Never mind the FICA money collected through SSI and subsequently stolen by the Bush administration to fund two “Costly” and mostly unnecessary wars. They use to fund these kinds of wars by selling War Bonds. Remember? None the less, your party leadership wants your Social Security payments to make payment on the national debt. So they say.
Anyway, you might want to start looking for a job or buy a lottery ticket. Maybe go to an indigenous tribe casino and hope to get lucky.
Oh well, hardship can easily be overcome. Our parents had to do this when they were forced to ration and limit their food and housing during and after World War II. So sudden poverty may be coming to a homeless shelter near you. So get ready. Tighten your belts. Suck it in. Get ready for the big social crash. “Depression numbers two is on it’s way.” It’s the Republican way.
