Unless Sanders is proposing to phase out the scheme, not interested.

You've been paying into social security probably your whole life and you don't want what you deserve ?
Do you want the government to pay you back the money they took from you for this ? We don't need homeless
elderly folks all over our streets. We need to make social security stronger.

I'd cut my losses if I could quit paying right now. The money I contributed thus far has already gone into the pockets of others.
Why do you want to continue to make future generations poorer so you can sit on a porch?
Elderly people all over the street? Oh okay, just like if we disn't have Obamacare, Medicare, Medicaid there would be people dying in the streets. Alan Greyson is that you?

He will lift the cap on income subject to payroll tax so that people making over 250k a year pay the same rate as every other American, a policy plan which is supported by the vast majority of Americans.

It's a great ad and social security is tremendously popular among Americans, just like Medicare and people want to see those social safety nets strengthened. Invest in the American people, not endless wars and involvement in foreign adventures.

Here he is laying out the difference between himself and Hillary on Wall Street in a new ad just released. Amazingly, Hillary called him "soft on Wall Street", which is not a credible attack coming from Hillary IMO.

lol at all the high school and college kids who support the guy who is going to force them to pay for their grandparents' retirements. No chance that they'll have any money for themselves in the SS fund in 40 years. Well, there might be a few pennies left, if they're lucky. Useful idiots!
