Why threaten SS?

Posted

Dear Mr. President, I heard you say you will not guarantee Social Security checks if the debt ceiling isn’t raised. Why is the scare always to do with Social Security, Medicare and our soldiers’ pay?  Why not stop your pay, your staff, and that of Congress and the Senate to save  more money for our country?  Why use seniors, soldiers and our needy as examples?  Take the money from those who take no risks and reap the benefits! Instead of threatening to withhold Social Security, VA, WIC and disability payments of people who really need the money, let’s  hold the paychecks of all House and Senate members, then see how fast they resolve the debt ceiling crisis!
