If you've spent more on your Medicare than you've paid in- welcome to Socialism, as you define it. If you have received more Social Security than you paid in- welcome to socialism, as you call it.
It seems only fair to me, as a baby-boomer, that you should not get one penny more than you have put into our "Socialistic" systems. Isn't that what you're saying- as long as it's someone else?
Our Declaration states that "Life" is one of the cardinal responsibilities and gifts given by our creator. Somehow, it gets lost when that affects some greedy geezer's pocketbook.

Hmmmm Sounds like an anger issue to me. How about this? I will take every penny I put into it with compound interest since the government started taking it out of my paycheck and not ask for another dime. How's that? 46 years of my money earning interest. I'll take it and never ask my government for another "hand-out". OK? Oh yea, my wife has been self-employed for the last 22 years so she has been paying the Social Security tax of approximately 15 % I would like her's compounded too.
Oh, wait a minute..we had to pay for Johnson"s "War on Poverty." How did that work out? Oh yea, the government decided to "borrow" from the SS money to pay for that little expenditure....tell us again how many SS billions were borrowed for the infamous "War on Poverty"?
Oh...wasn't it the same administration that decided to borrow more money from social security to pay for the Vietnam war that a democrat started?
Let's see..who went over there to fight the Kennedy-Johnson War? Oh yea...THE GREEDY BABY BOOMERS. Imagine that.......
