There seems to be a Hell of a lot of money leaving this Country helping out everyone with their hand out around the World. Take care of the mentally ill our Veterans and our seniors and our workers.
When I get low on money, I STOP spending money. I budget, I cut back on the things I can, cheaper food, no new clothing, necessities only. I recommend the government begin to do the same thing.
@@toplarry If you get fat and then get broke, the fat doesn't just go away. You eat cheaper food which is poor quality and more likely to make you fat. Rich people get fat from eating too much, poor people get fat from eating badly. In general.
I worked since I was 13 and now that I’m of retirement age. They want to send me 1000 and then tax it. I can’t live on that. My city raised my real estate taxes so much that that will be all I can pay.
I've been working since I was 16 years old and I am 72 now and been on social security for 2 years. They started me out at 550 a month I couldn't even believe it I had to go on Medicaid and food stamps and I've worked every single day of my life now they've given me raises up to $800 a month this is wrong
I had to sell some of my mother's Furniture just to pay my power bills this summer but somehow someone turned me in for making a little bit of money so they were going to cut off my Medicaid and my food stamps I'm a white female 72 years old disabled living alone and have worked my whole life until I fell and had to have surgery on my neck now you tell me what the heck are they doing with the illegals when they want to make me since I've made $117 give up my Medicaid and my food stamps I would starve. I have to sell something every single month just to pay my electric bill
How can you give all these illegal immigrants that have never even lived in the United States put them on Social Security Medicare and give them food stamps when we are starving I can't even afford eggs right now they just went up to $5 for a dozen
Social Security has been regularly siphoned off by other departments over the years and never reimbursed. It's just too convenient and too tempting for sticky fingers. Itbwas designed to be self funding and still could be to a great degree if it can be secured much better. We all worked for this funding and deserve to have access to it as designed. This cannot be a "general welfare fund" as Mr. Johnson seems to favor. He is in error.
Okay. Now that you know the problem. What are the possible solutions? Start breaking it down and forget parties for this part. Start looking at each State - each Senator and Congressman should be doing this for their State. Now Get It Done!
reefratsclark5404 Taxes are an overhead expense that gets calculated into the price of the goods and services. Thus the consumer; the same morons screaming “tax the rich” will actually pay that tax as it is passed through to the consumer in higher prices. We are literally funding our own demise.
Retired benefits of social security workers recieve 6000 to 15000 a month for their own retirement. Why didn't they invest our money the same way . My grandfathers nephew Edward Arthur in Catonville still living, should be in front of congress also Joe Curran Jr. To get 5h3 answers why the let the salaries an oensions increase to creat our 40 trillion dept. The pensions are 2 trillion in the in the rear.Again Edward Arthur the director an employees of Social security started paying them selves a illegal salary an pensions after Edward Arthur's uncke John G. Arthur set the pay scale until the year 2042. After Judge John G. Arthurs passing in 1983. The State attorney General Joseph Curran Jr. Let SALARIES raise 160000 thousand on top of the 40000 thousand anaul salary. Took the mandatory 18000. Anaul oensan raised them to 80% of the public servants illegal wage increase.Destroyed America.
I think what the senator is trying to say is that (sure rich people live longer because they can afford to eat healthy and see a doctor who will provide adequate care but, poor people live far too long as it is). Is that about right Senator?
There is no reason to have illegals put on ssi or any other type of person only for citizens who worked and had money invested into the ssi
Social Security should not be taxed at either the State or Federal level.
We need to stop out of control spending by the government.
Why would any migrant have access to this fund?
They're using it as a slush fund too

If broke then why are the majority of us overweight. We should all be starving and eating cats.

Cut government workers pensions and take away all pensions for congressmen and senators
yes no retirement for them in any way
Absolutely they have been dipping into it for a very long time.

What are they doing with all the money that all of us Americans have worked every day of Our Lives for and paid taxes
SS benefits today won't even pay the monthly bills let alone anything else.
DECEIVED is kind

Income tax should be 10% across the board with no exceptions or deductions
Audit it! You will find billions borrowed from SSI and never paid back also funding other programs. needs to stop and money paid back now!
Taxed on wages taxed on purchase taxed on sales taxed on property taxed on city fees & then taxed again. 🤤🤤🤤🤤

We got fucked by congress.
Lift up the😢 cap on income that pays into the fund.
Its not the first time
And many other issues
Tax at 57% companies will just move overseas

@@FoundersWords Pretty obvious
The interest on the debt is unsustainable
How about no taxes on social security benefits and a have a flat tax of 10% on every American. Is that feasible
Ya don't say?
What about the value of the dollar ? Can we re-monitize ?

If the government doesn't have hard assets to bolster social services well, then i guess that's really good for corporate/finance America, isn't it?
Bwak Bwak Bwaaak !!!!
Of fucking course let's distract by making it about race.
Ron Johnson is more than wrong about social security
I think what the senator is trying to say is that (sure rich people live longer because they can afford to eat healthy and see a doctor who will provide adequate care but, poor people live far too long as it is). Is that about right Senator?
If you don't like social security then quit the senate go home
He's not saying that. Social security is going broke because it's been misused.
