IF the RICH did not get Social Security.... I'd go for that
what does a billionaire need social security for???
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1433697I'm sure they would go for that too. Ohh, but you probably mean they still have to pay into it though.
Even if you go your way on this, you still wouldn't be satisfied. You goons won't stop until you take very penny from them.
Then still have the nerve to demand more.

15. Making social security universal would help a lot
I've never understood why some professions are not in social security anyway.
That would be one easy fix.
Make the universal program universal.
Yep you want their money too, don't you?

18. The largest outs from S.S. are state
public workers. Their pensions as middle income earners are a much better deal than the S.S. system. Actually the state of California makes a killing because its contribution to the state pensions is much lower than it would be if those employees were under S.S.

21. But look howe much better social security would be if
it had all of these middle class teachers and state workers paying into the "universal" system.
Why are they not in anyway?
Doctors would love to have their own pension instead of FICA but they aren't allowed to, only teachers and other state workers.
I'm sure the unions would happily oblige to that.

17. or get only waht they put in. they are the ones with the better health thru lifestyle and
affordable healthcare and sucking the system dry.
i love how my inlaws get the SS and ok with us being cut out, as they continue to receive, without needing and telling the poor to pull up by bootstrap.
It aint the evil rich who are sucking the system dry, it's people like you who are doing that.
