Well a few weeks back I got a letter telling me to get on medicare. I didn't know what to do so I went down to the social security office. I was pleasantly surprised. I'll get my first payment on my birthday in February. Heck since I have 2 dependant children and a wife I'll get $255 a month for each of them plus I'll be able to keep working. I had no idea how good my country was going to do by me. I thank all of our past leaders that made it so I don't have to worry about being older. This is truly a great country for doing that. People gripe about socialism and politicians want to take away the safety net.---They are way off in there thinking and there is no way I will give up what my country has done for me. I have worked hard all of my life and it has paid off. I hear the trade war has left crops rotting in the fields yet people want to cut off food stamps for the poor. It is a sin to begrudge people simple food. We are supposed to be a Christian nation. The politicians who want to do away with social security and food stamps will not get my v**e. Keep America great and V**e against those who would do harm to our society and bring crushing poverty to the workers and elderly.

Stop B***hin and leave doggie. America is the most generous nation in the history of the world. No other country gives as much--not even close. The poor of the world is going to overwhelm the borders and demand their fair share of welfare. Workers will be overwhelmed under the welfare taxation. A revolt will result. REMEMBER, the revolution under which the USA was birthed. "Taxation without representation." was the corner stone of the revolution. Another cornerstone revolution is in the offing. Due to stupid liberal ideology. In their attempt to create a utopian society they will destroy what is. What arises from the ashes is not ascertainable. Where as most liberals are antichrist what ever arises from the dead will certainly be antichrist The next question is: what is the morality of an antichrist gov.? Q***rs, Lisbos. Criminals, liars & c***ts rule .No military. Chinees is the mandatory language?????????

Ummm...you people beating up on Tom here didn't stop to think that he's paid into this for most of his life with a promise that they would return it to him when he gets old.
I'm too young to collect any of what I've paid in for all of my life to ever get a dime of it back, the way we are going.

Sorry Archie: But I ant givin none of it back. But, I will feed U. I need a good conservative to be lively to war for our cause. Thank U!

Don't denigrate a good man. That's all I'm saying. Tom may not be a conservative, but he's a good man, and he ain't taking nothing he hasn't paid for his whole life with a government promise that he'd get it back.

Good for you Archie, you're an honest man, you just climbed to the next flight in my book!
There are actually some liberals that you can have a decent conversation with. But for the most part I just get them pissed off. And I am sorry to say I do the same at times.

They are my grandchildren. I and my wife had to take over when their parents failed.

Really ? Why would you say that? America is the greatest country in the world and we should all want to keep it that way.

It is my sincerest wish that every one who pays into social security will have it when they need it. I am not specific on any party when I say v**e against politicians who want to take it away.The program pretty much ended poverty for seniors and our leaders should do everything the can to strengthen it and make sure it always will be there.

You just seem to be too middle of the road to be a real liberal.
Not dissing at all.

Coos Bay Tom Loc: coos bay oregon

Thank you Archie. I love my country and my fellow Americans. I was really happy with what the social security department told me. Heck I thought I would only get paid for myself and I even got more there than I thought I would. You can bet my v**es in the future will be for making sure you and all others coming of age will have the security they deserve for all the hard work They did keeping the wheels of this country going. That's everybody from a janitor to a doctor. God Bless America and Texas too.

No problem . To tell you the t***h I am middle of the road. Some things about me may seem liberal but it is people that I care about. Every person needs food shelter and economic security and that is what I expect our politicians to make sure we as Americans have. We all should work I believe in that and I want there to be a job for everybody seeking one.
