Does Trump know about this republican sponsored bill to CUT SOCIAL SECURITY Benefits?

The government has been spending the surplus for years
What is left is used to buy government bonds.
Now that there is more being paid out than taken in, math will take over.
Some combination of the following will happen,
Retirement age will be raised, benifits will be cut, young people will be asked to pay more in and the best of those will leave and renounce thier citzenship.
Future payments will be made by new currency creation that will devalue the dollar causing loss of purchasing power, hyperinflation and an Austrian school crack up boom

Truth, your government lied, stole, and now they're going to try to cover it up by stealing more and we will all continue to loose as long as we rely on government for our retirement

Paul Ryan is a moron. All they need to do is order the fed to print up some more money. They did it for the auto industry, they did it for the banks. They can do it for SS too.

Yes, plenty of jobs for these lazy bums.

My construction company wants to hire people in their late 60s through 70s, but they'd rather suck off the gov tit, rather than put in a hard day's work.

racist much ?

Can't handle the truth can you
How many non whites live in Switzerland

As a US citizen that goes to work everyday around this time, I see more people in my city on it that are more than able to work than not on it, they just go to the doctor and claim they are depressed or some other shit, get a sign off, and then they are golden. It's getting real old real fast, and these same people are the ones you see grilling steaks at noon everyday on their stoop in the ghetto. No ambition, no work ethic, nothing. Time for them to work or not eat. Fuck them, My fellow countrymen and I who work our assess off shouldn't have money taken from us to support leeches. Of all colors.

Sounds lovely. ha ha.

It's a scare tactic that you hear every few years.

People are jealous because very few countries in the world give pensions to their elderly citizens. Very few.

What you're talking about sounds like SSI, not social security.

This article is referring to the social security retirement fund that the elderly population spent the last 40 to 50 years paying into.

That is true for 1/2 of it. Regular Social Security is paid in by the older worker.

Social Security Disability is the 1/2 that is the entitlement. It is full of fraud and parasites playing the system.


.

How about we first start with cutting the benefits of Congress?

Leave SS alone, waaah!

Screw you. I have worked hard for 40 years, while paying in to SSI. I should be able to get a small part of that back when I retire. It's not my fault the government has mismanaged the $.

So he's like 95% of the people on this site.

Yes, that is the truth. President Johnson removed SS from its retirement fund and into the general fund where it could be spent. Bill Clinton also balanced his budget with social security funds.

I don't think Trump would ever sign a bill to cut SS benefits. In fact, I hope he returns the SS funds back to its own retirement fund so it can't be touched by government. That way the money will earn interest, which, if it had remained in its own protective fund when it was established, it would never run out of money. It would have funded retirees forever.

Social Security is not a welfare program. Everyone who works pays into their own social security fund. At retirement age, SS pays out a monthly allotment from the account you paid into for 30+ years. It's your money.

Stupid much?

The above OP was relating what he saw at his local social security office. There are illegals and others on social security who never paid a dime into it. Why is that?

Hopefully Trump will correct the immigration laws and those who are on social security illegal will be deleted from it. It used to be that illegals were deported. I hope we return to that.

Even so, if they are here illegally, they should not be entitled to any entitlement programs unless they become citizens FIRST.

Ok, tell us about that when you are old and SICK and cannot afford to live and are unable to work. They STOLE our money for our entire working lives and now that they have stolen from THAT for other stuff, they put themselves in a hole with it. NOT OUR FAULT!

He'll know about it for sure if it ends up on his desk for a signature. My guess is he would veto such an attempt, since he said he would not cut social security benefits during his campaign.

Probably being from Switzerland he only hears and believes the fake news media about American whites being racist.

I wish I had a video to show that Swiss jackass when I took my 85 year old mother to the SS office. Her husband, my father who she was married to for close to 60 years had just died. She was determined to do the right thing ASAP and went to the SS office to get his benefits terminated.

The people working in the office were all black and Hispanic. They conducted their business in Spanish and bent over backwards for the non-english speaking people coming in, the majority.

When it was my mothers turn she got an angry young black woman who began yelling at her extremely rudely about her papers and documents. Despite what she said, she did have everything prepared appropriately I made sure of it in advance. But this b*tch wanted trouble. It was pretty clear this woman had it in for my mother because she was old and white. The other non-white patrons were not treated this way.

I told the woman to give her a break that she just lost her husband the day before and came here to ensure she did the right thing. The black woman yelling nastily at her to speak louder. My 85 year old mother at that point was in tears because of this racist angry young black woman, but the racist black did not care, she kept up the nastiness the entire time.

When I raised my voice to say come on settle down she just lost her husband, the other minorities and security are looking at me as the problem, of course because we are white and she is black. Here you had an angry black yelling at an 85 year old woman who just lost her husband. Any non-racist person or anyone with a sense of compassion would be outraged how this woman was treating an elderly person.

Even a white racist I do not believe would treat an elderly black person in this manner. It was just so completely out of line. But did any of the minorities come to my mothers assistance in the office, no. Because the SS office was filled with minority racists that are far more racist than any white despite whatever the media says.

Agreed. Noncitizens should not receive any entitlement benefits at all. It's just that social security is not an entitlement program; it's a retirement fund that recipients spent their entire working lives paying into.

Damn politicians had been too fearful of the race card to stop it. Hopefully that will some what change except for total cucks like Paul Ryan that kiss the ass of illegals.

100%

On one hand Trump should have never endorsed those pieces of shit Ryan and McCain. If he had got behind their challengers we would be in allot better shape. Now we are stuck with an open borders globalist and a lunatic war monger.

On the other, maybe Trump may have not won without those deals since they would have worked harder to take him down.
