So, here we are. The midnight hour of the debt ceiling fiasco is nearing. Well, what do you think all of you that have paid into Social Security, fought and put your lives on the line for this country when you hear Washington say your rightly deserved checks may or may not be in the mail on the third? Does this now wake you up. Can you now get your heads out of your butts and get behind your insidious racist mentality and face reality? President O'Bama did not create this mess. But I would bet my seat in heaven that before this is over some fork-tongued republican politician will fuel your ignorant and sheep-like mentality to have you disparaging your current president for what is going on in Washington right now.
The sad thing about it is this: those of you who spent so much time trying to convince yourself that none of this affects you are no longer able to deceive yourself into such crazy thought processing. Now do you see that if you are not up there with the multi-millionaires and billionaires, your government does not give a damn about you. NO MATTER WHAT COLOR YOUR SKIN IS! I can't even imagine any politician standing in front of a camera to be shown all over the country trying to convince us that the only thing they can come up with in trying to resolve the debt problem that has been going on for the last 40 years is to take the only source of income which should never have been used for anything else but social security entitlement to keep from taxing those that have created this mess to begin with from people who are barely surviving. I am not talking about SSI that any immigrant from anywhere in the world can come and start reciving benefits. I am talking about Social Security that I paid into all of my working life.
There is no reason for this country to be in such a state. The United States has the most billionaires in the entire world. They control about 34% of the worlds economy. We are not the forerunner in the number of millionaires per capita but so what. We have over 400 people worth over a billion dollars each. And you don't think these people run the government???? Stick together to tax the very people that have made them billionaires? While they pay little or no taxes? People who can barely live comfortably even though they work five days a week, paying all kinds of taxes out of their income. Have you looked at your phone bill lately if you have a land line? Have you looked at your cable bill lately? Who is benefitting from those obscure tax fees? Certainly not I. Are you?
I paid into the Social Security Fund all of my working life. I have worked from the time I was sixteen years old. What ever they took out for federal taxes, they took out the same for SSA, before I even got my pay check. At then end of the year, I dont claim the amount I ended up with each payday. I must say I earned the money before the taxes came out, which is really a lie. To me, if you earned something and were paid a certain amount that and that only is your income. Then if I was fortunate enough to manage to have a little savings account then the interest that was earned on money that was already taxed, is taxed again. A single person is taxed more than a married couple who share expenses, who pay the same rent, the same utility bills and yet they pay more of a percentage of their taxes because they are single.
Do you think that the percentage that is charged to low to middle class citizens (whatever that is- just say working class) is the same as that the billionaires are paying? What do you think our treasury would look like if they paid the same percentage and got less of a break with all these weird fake deductions that are only available to the very wealthy. Why shouldn't they help the government pay their bills? The government rushes to their aid at the drop of a hat (uh, hello? remember the bail-outs).
What is wrong with this picture. They vote to give them selves a 5 to 6 figure raise and at the same time veto any proposed healthcare bill that would aid the citizens of this country. Yet they get free medical as part of their perks.
Get your head out of the sand and that hatred of races out of your hearts so you can see what the hell every other country can see. That we are being &^*(ed by those you put in office. It aint about the color of anyone's skin. It is all about the almighty dollar of which you NOR I have enough of.
