Seniors are the largest beneficiaries of Section 8 housing certificates.
Seniors who qualify can also receive SNAP benefits.
Then why is it so hard for non-baby mamas to get Section 8 vouchers? I presume it's just as hard for seniors to get Section 8 vouchers as it is for childless burger flippers.

Are you still droning the same old same old? And round and round we go. Get it, Obama is insensitive to what you need. Obama does not care about your problem. This is what the American people voted for. Get over it.
That party cost the tax payer over $400K. So what did you do last night?
But their purchasing power will fall. Your task is to ecplain to them how it's not a cut.
Of course it's a cut. Receiving $100 today is a heck of a lot more (in purchasing power) than receiving $100 in 20 years. No one is going to buy the "it's not a cut" argument, because no one is that stupid.
But that's not likely because the US has voters stupid enough to vote for the GOP (who is driving force behind cutting Social Security) and also stupid enough to vote for Obama who is WANTING to please DC elites by showing he will cut benefits on the little people.
Obama has not been forced into this.....He wants to cut social security.
Now all those stupid enough to vote Republican, or for fake liberals like Obama......you're about to get what you deserve.
Title of the thread is false. The are not going to be any cuts to social security.
Obama wants to change how the COLA is calculated. THE INCREASE THAT ALL SOCIAL SECURITY RECIPIENTS GET EVERY YEAR.
The average monthly payment is $1150 a month. If the COLA at one calculation is 3.2%, the monthly increase would be $36.80. If the formula is changed and it is found that the increase is only 3.0%, the monthly increase would be $34.50 What people are whining about is $2.30 a month less but still a $414 yearly increase.
THERE ARE NO CUTS
Then that's a cut any way you slice it. And, if a senior is getting 800 a month, and Medicare premiums go up but cover less by the passing day, every dollar is something to whine about.
Lifting the tax cap on high incomes would solve the Social Security long term deficit.
lifting the caps (on contributions) will also lift the caps on PAY OUTS
costing more problems in the LONG TERM
lifting the caps might work mathamaticly for a short term bandaid...but in the long term it would be a killer, because the payouts would super out weigh the intakes

Considering the misinformation you spread daily, what you think is meaningless.
Post a credible source to back up what you are claiming ...otherwise it's nonsense.
