IF THE SENATE AND HOUSE CAN GIVE THEMSELVES COST OF LIVING INCREASES, THEN WHY EXCLUDE SOCIAL SECURITY?
RENTS GO UP, UTILITIES GO UP, FOOD GOES UP, DO THEY NOT REFLECT THE COST OF LIVING, LITERALLY!, I AM SICK AND TIRED OF POLITICIANS TAKING CARE OF THEMSELVES FIRST AND HURTING THOSE THAT NEED IT. MANY SENIORS DID NOT HAVE OPTIONAL RETIREMENT PLANS, STRUGGLED IN HARD TIMES TO RAISE A FAMILY, OR JUST MAINTAIN THEMSELVES, AND WAITED TILL THEY WERE FEELING LIKE THEY WERE HALF DEAD TO SEE A DOCTOR BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T AFFORD THE RISING COSTS BACK THEN.
LEAVE SOCIAL SECURITY OUT OF THE MESS THAT POLITICIANS PUT US IN.
Why is this important?
I GO ON SOCIAL SECURITY IN SEPTEMBER, I LIVE ALONE AND CAN BARELY AFFORD TO LIVE NOW.
