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. Eisboch It's very similar to what our county, and probably most others, does when taxpayers raise hell about higher taxes for schools... "Then we'll have to get rid of teachers and put more students in each classroom. The poor kids will suffer." Pure bull****. Really? Isn't state taxes fund it for 98% of it? Maybe leave the union? Then direct the money to the state. LOL. -- Obama, enslaving Americans with debt-tax slavery for a spending binge. Doesn't even borrow real money, Bernanke just creates it like a counterfeiter. . |

The SS fund is solvent until 2037. Unless Obama has raided and stole the fund. Which I agree, would be a sin against seniors. Fact is government is running on fraud, deception and bull****. 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. Eisboch Yep, Obama selling fear with lies and bull****. Kind of amazes me the Bernanke US Fed currency fraud hasn't come up. It is very much linked to revenue losses. But that is fleabaggers in denial. USA credit downgrade might be good for USA, as interest rates are fraudulently low and part of the problem. Higher rates might soak up some of the $3 trillion plus of Bernanke currency fraud and abate inflation a bit. -- Obama, enslaving Americans with debt-tax slavery for a spending binge.

Why is it the scare always has to do with SS, Medicare, & our Soldiers pay? perhaps because these constitute a large chunk of the budget Why not stop your pay, your staff, or Congress and the Senate to save more money for our country? what makes you think it doesnt?
