• President Obama-Dance with the one who brung ya
    President Obama proposing Chain CPI-If I have to live off less, how am I supposed to live? Those of us receiving Social Security are not bandits robbing a system in which we have invested nothing. The small increases sent to keep up with the cost of living do not make us wealthy, it just helps us get by when we can no longer work.

  • Do Not Cut Social Security
    I'm a retired teacher of 26 years trying to live on a very tight budget. I hope soon to collect Social Security earned from my 15 years waitressing. I need this in order to pay towards my Medicare. My oldest daughter has lost her home. My youngest has just lost her teaching job. Who will pay for their medical plans?

  • Oppose any cuts to Social Security.
    Social Security in no shape or form contributed to the deficit, and therefore should not be cut and or cola. Social Security should not even be on the table for discussion - recipient(s) have paid into Social Security during their hard working years.

  • Stop the proposed cuts to Social Security and Veteran's Benefits.
    In 2008, candidate Barack Obama told the American people that he would not cut Social Security, but now President Obama proposes to cut Social Security and veterans' benefits with the "chained CPI" (an adjustment that would reduce cost-of-living increases to Social Security and other federal benefit programs.)

  • Shameful!
    While this country engages in conversation about making illegals citizens, it is trying to deprive those who paid into a system for decades their full social security benefits. This is not the president we voted for and they are simply appalled that he would entertain such a notion as corporate entities like GE pay ZERO in tax. This is NOT A VIABLE SOLUTION. This is absolutely a fulL attack against America's middle class!

  • Grace Meng, Oppose cuts to Social Security
    My husband and I depend on our Social Security payments for our living expenses. We can alter spending habits on food, clothing and incidental expenses, but when medical needs arises, there are seldom cheaper options except foregoing treatment.

  • Do not cut Social Security
    Retirees have earned the right to a future that is not filled with the loss of food, shelter, and the basic rights of life. They have given for their country and paid for the future for us all.

  • no social security cuts!
    Please tell the president to not cut social security. Many older people who have worked and paid into this system their entire lives, now might be forced to deal with cutting out their money which has been promised to them while dealing with rising health care costs.
