Cuts for Senate, and Congress pensions
Please leave a fully funded program (Social Security) out of your negotiations to balance the Budget or make cuts to your own pensions before thinking of taking away from the little income that our elderly receive.
Why is this important?
Congress insists to cut Social Security even though this is a program that is fully funded by us the people. Social Security does not affect the deficit because it is a program already paid for by taxing our wages. I do not deny that modifications have to be made to the collection of the Social Security Taxes, (increase the cap 110,000 and increase the rate of these taxes), but this modifications need to be separated from the negotiations for the Budget, since Social Security is already funded by us.
If our Congress and Senate insist on modifying our Social Security I propose that they also make reductions, cuts and increase the age for their pensions. I think that would only be fair since they insist on making cuts to a program that has already been paid for.
