Haven't you been paying any attention? The Great Leader is telling us that by soaking a few billion out of the 'millionaires and billionaires,' we can pay down the debt, restore the middle class, "invest" in our public unions, oops I mean invest in our children and roads and nice-sounding green projects. No doubt this magic bottomless bag of money can also save SS. If you are already planning to spend 100,000% of what your class warfare tax is going to raise, why not spend 200,000% or 300,000%? He's just lucky that so many voters are bad at math.

Actually, only 10.3 Million Americans receive Social Security Disability (as of December 2011), but 36+ Million people benefit from Social Security Disability, because they live in the same household.

I see you missed the entire point again. You don't see a journalistic double standard in reporting the information? The standard for reporting Food Stamp usage is by household, since Food Stamps are issued only to one person in an household, in the same way that reporting Social Security Disability (and also Social Security and Supplemental Security Income) is by individual.

Sorry, I wouldn't know how to dumb things down to your level.

He could bury you in an avalanche of data and reality that you'd never dig your way out of.

Why don't you elaborate and show us just how solvent Social Security and Medicare really are, and can you do that without linking to someone else's work?

Be careful...you might end up in a psych ward talking to yourself about yourself.

Are you going to provide something substantive like he asked, or just continue with your really poor Seinfeld imitation?

Substantially...

Kid, it's cute that you have given up on copying and pasting to support your racism and bigotry and have just accepted that you have nothing to add. You really degraded to show yourself fast. I didn't know that someone could be this spineless.

It's also very hilarious that you sign everything, especially this one "substantially" because you don't post anything of worth, but stupid is as stupid does.

Have fun in your make believe world under your bridge.

Even with rates as low as they are are better over time then rate SS gets plus, ALL the money is YOURS. If you die, your family gets it.
