Dear Mr. President, I heard you say you will not guarantee SS checks if the
debt ceiling isn't
raised.

Why is it the scare always has to do with SS, Medicare,& our Soldiers pay?

Why not stop your pay, your staff, or Congress and the Senate to save more
money for our country?

Why use Seniors, Soldiers,& our Needy as examples?

Take the money from those who take no risks and reap the benefits!!

Instead of threatening to withhold Social Security, VA and disability
payments of people who really
need the money....

Lets hold the paychecks of all house& senate members, then see how fast
they resolve the debt
ceiling crisis !!!!!


Might be a good idea if everyone did it.

The thing I have problems with regarding Obama's statements is that Social
Security payments are not at risk from a funding point of view.
The SS fund is solvent until 2037.

Now, if he and his Treasury Department decide to withhold payments in order
to use the funds for other bills, that's
another thing and could result in some serious legal problems. He and his
staff know that. Therefore, his statements regarding SS checks being
withheld are nothing more than scare tactics to gain support for his side.
I don't like that kind of dishonest politics.

Nope. He's right. There's no legally enforceable right to benefits.

It is why I always insisted company penions in my name, in my account
and under my control. Too bad people would not wake up and do this with
CPP (Canada) and SS (US). Pooled funds are all skimmed and bamboozled.

Take social security, Obama has already ****ed it away. US government
pays zero percent interest and inflation diminishes the value of SS
every year. That is on Aug 2nd, Obama needs to direct income to SS to
cover its debt to the people.

I know, paying debts to its people in good faith isn't something
government likes to do. But perhaps citizens should rise and tell, not
ask, but demand government priorities get re-arranged.

Doesn't even borrow real money, Bernanke just creates it like a
