DU Recipients of Social Security Fund Face Hefty Benefits Cut

[SSG Snuggle Bunny]

Gosh, that's awful, that means the one-third of the people who are on SSDI and are legitimately unable to work and get around will really be up against it, right along with the two-thirds that are useless free-loading bloodsuckers.

Hey DUmmies, that 'We paid for our benefits' stuff only applies to the old age part of SS, not the disability part (Yeah, I know it's actually more complex than than, but suffice to say virtually nobody on SSDI paid in anywhere near what they're going to collect out of it, unlike the age-based part).

Proglodytes prefer to divide the pie into thinner slices so that more people are dependent on the pie. They think they can then turn those numbers into voters who will demand more/bigger pies.

The bakers of the world are about to hand them a rude awakening.

20. We *are* entitled to that money - we paid into it for years and years

Just wait until your beloved undocumented (d)emocrats start sucking up even more of your "entitlement" next year.  Sorry suckers.  You had to stumble through life wasting every opportunity this country has to offer and bitching daily about people who are smarter, wealthier, far better looking and more ambitious than you.

All they have to do is show up at the border for their frEeShiT!!!!1111 (and your Social Security!     )

Are you pissed?

Tough.  Die, hippies.  Die poor, alone and slowly, in tremendous pain because that, is exactly what you have done to this country.

Our city just screwed over the city workers by voting to reduce the benefits of their pensions and health care.  Retirees are going to have a 314% increase in their medical premiums

They are really fit to be tied that they have to pay back their student loans.

Well, as we all know, it's not "fair".

Its sad, but the unions brought in on themselves. For decades they pushed to have the government agencies pay all or most of the pensions and often allowed for early retirement. Something has to give.

My city is facing the same thing, but they are talking about instituting a gas tax to offset the money spent on pensions. That won't go over well. Over 54% of the city budget goes to paying pensions just for firefighters and police, that doesn't include the pensions for other city workers.

They are telling the retirees that they won't be without medical insurance, they will get them on Medicare or an Obamacare plan.

Obama and the dems wanted to free people from their employer provided insurance. Well, pension plans sort of fall into that category. The law of unintended consequences bite their ass.

Sorry but I think they are carrying the heavy load, you aren't doing anything.  They are the one's taking care of someone.  And how in the hell do you have student loans yet you can't use the correct word?  It's "Lose" or "Losing".   

Bhahahahhaha you think a DUmmy like that actually finished college? Possible but a long shot.

Hey now. Let's not be so harsh here, shall we? Those remedial classes are hard.

DUmmies fascinate me with their lists of ailments and woes.  When they start typing them, one wonders how they can remember everything without using a 'cheat sheet.'

I'm 71, and my medications include a pill for hypothyroidism.  That's the whole list.  I don't think I would be accepted by the DUmmies.

Well, in the interest of full disclosure, they have banned me twice, but not because of my good health.

I noticed that too (along with lose vs. loose--jumps out every time).  We've seen this before, of course, with Stewert.  God only knows what happened to him.  How these people cannot think past square one is beyond me.

He has moved to East Peoria, joined a pool hall, and the family home is still up for sale.
