Hey All..Do you know how much your Senator will make in benefits once they retire? let me start.. our Senator California Diane Feinstein - about $6 million total plus free health(the best doctors etc) courtesy of taxpayers Other Senator - don't have number me when I retire : be lucky to get $200,000 total benefits. pay for own drugs.. Now you know why the democrats don't want a change Social Security.
Wow! How did I miss this thread? You can actually blame both sides for this. Who else gets to give themselves raises and decide on the benefits? Only the gov.
How unfortunate are those small tax payers who faithfully pay their taxes for the benifit of these retirees. I agree with you Zman; sad to say but I think this needs a divine intervention.
