Social Security.

President Obama is taking advantage of SENIORS IN THIS COUNTRY. I live on Social Security and barely have enough to eat and don't have much left over to really buy most of the basics I need for everyday life. I pay over $300.00 on Health, Prescription Plan D, and Medicare Premium,I cannot afford Dental insuance nor qualiffy for food stamps even tho my income after all the above is less than $13,000 a year. ENOUGH WITH IGNORING THE SENIORS WHO WORKED AND PAYED INTO SOCIAL SECURITY, STOPE GIVING OUR MONIES TO THE YOUNGER PEOPLE WHO SHOULD BE ABLE TO WORK IF OBAMA WOULD RUN THIS COUNTRY RIGHT AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT JOBS, I PERSONALLY AND KNOW OTHER SENIORS WHO ARE SO STRESSED IN OUR OLDER AGE WHEN WE CANNOT EVEN AFFORD SOME THINGS WE NEED OR WOULD LIKE TO HAVE. OBAMA IS SET FOR LIFE AND HIS FAMILY WILL NEVER HAVE NEED SO HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT SENIORS IN THIS COUNTRY. $13,000 a year

SOMEONE HELP US CONCERNED NEW JERSEY OLDER ADULTS WHO WORKED AND PAID TAXES ALL OUR LIVE HAVE A SAFE GOLDEN YEARS AFTER WORKING OUR LIVES AWAY !

President Obama compaigned on promises to not touch Social Security. Now he is going back on his word. We have paid into this system all our working lives and have earned this benefit. It is not an entitlement! And not the way to address the deficit.

Don't Cut My Social Security, I'ts Not an Entitlement.... I Earned It.

This is about President Obama's proposal to change the way cost of living increases are calculated for retirees and veterans on Social Security. As a concern citizen, the proposed "chained CPI" would be a significant cut to senior citizens and disable veterans who are on a fix income. This terrible idea should be rejected.

The federal government is considering changing the COLA for Social Security recipients. My parents and millions of others continued in their middle class lives after retirement because of the way COLAs were tied to the Consumer Price Index in the 1970's, so that they would not lose their buying power due to inflation. In the 1980's our payroll taxes were doubled to pay for future benefits. Because of the last 5 years, retirees/potential retirees are much worse off than previous retirees and now is NOT the time to cut back earned Social Security benefits for seniors.

As a senior citizen who has paid into the system for years, I have factored this entitlement into my daily allowance. Please stop targeting the seniors... Tax the working class, please. Some day, they too will be seniors.

I am about to get social security and need it desperately. Please save social security as it is! You don't want to see the elderly being homeless or hungry! Please refuse any cuts immediately! Thank you!

Every dime that goes to a Senior Citizen circulates throughout the economy. Tax cuts to wealthy Americans who don't work for a living do absolutely nothing get us out of the hole we're in.

We reduced OUR OWN employee contribution and called it a tax reduction, and now continue the lies that there is not enough money in the fund, then don't underfund it in the name of tax break for middle class. Also removing the limit from$80k and continuing the payment on upper incomes, would secure it for ever.
