4. After so many years of hearing about what the GOP wants to do w/ our social security benefits that we earned over the

course of our long years of working in the private sector, to drastically cut them or eliminate these benefits, the only reason folks would need to have their heads examined if they voted for these thugs to discontinue their social security benefits.

And upcoming generations after paying so long for these future benefits, too, would be at risk, after working so long to put aside monies, as well as rely on the pillar of social security too as so many do.

For some unfortunately, this is their only benefit.

Such a move to drastically cut or eliminate social security would be a disastrous move on the part of the GOP, if they did this, they might as well put away the campaign materials and go on to another job, if they're not thrown into jail first by outraged seniors.

And what really gets me is that they are so protective of the 1%ers, so much so, that I wonder just how much in hidden bribes have legislators been bribed w/? How many years will these thugs continue to get by w/ the almost lowest tax rates ever? They have been given massive tax breaks, they literally can write off the moon in doing their taxes, and yet they still moan and complain. So much for what this Country has allowed them to earn/make, being that being in a safe and secure environment, businesses and people have been unfettered in their business dealings, making record amounts of money.

When we get back into full control of the Congress, as well as having Kamala in the WH, we need to create an untouchable law regarding the full force of social security (SS) for our senior citizens, as they have earned it. No more of this pussy footing by legislators threatening our SS.
