Politicians shrinking Social Security Payments

 
America and ‘Heartbeat of America’ - textile and furniture manufacturing businesses making and selling their goods; therefore, being able to buy homes, cars, and food for their families. Politicians took this away from hard-working Taxpaying Americans with their ‘Free Trade’, stating America would become a service country. Really, the only servicing being done now is unemployment, social and welfare offices! Are Taxpayers getting any benefits from this type governing?
"We need affordable, accessible healthcare for all!" and "Do something for people who are uninsured" make Taxpayers wonder why these people, writing these articles, don’t get together and charge everyone $100.00 to attend a meeting and do something constructive; that is, you could take out a good health insurance plan and look after yourselves, as this is the only way it’s going to happen, because America is bankrupt or haven’t you noticed!
Politicians "Do as we say, not as we do" is quite evident in townhall meetings! They’re not interested in me, you nor our comments!
I, personally, was "forced" to take Medicare and their drug plan’ (real jokes). I was happy with my private insurance plan and the deductible. Prior to politicians’ mess, doctor visits were less. The politicians stated "I had to do it their way or else!" Needless to say, I wasn’t a happy camper! Medicare, Medicaid, Healthcare disaster, and anything else the politicians can drum up to take your money is very scary! 'Explanation of Benefit' a recent statement I received regarding this government rip off! My Doctor billed for $233.00, Medicare paid $76.20, private carrier paid $19.05! Can you see the problem here? Office visits, paid for by me, the patient, at $50.00, the doctors would be getting a lot more money, less papework, and government wouldn’t have access to all your records, which, incidentally, can be used against you - in case you didn’t know!
In plain English, Taxpayers would be better off with their own insurance and their own money! If I were a doctor, I’d be sitting on the front steps of all politicians until they went back to ‘pay as you go’, thus saving trillions of dollars! Better yet, Taxpayers should set up, with a good, honest insurance company, and manage a Insurance Trust for doctors and hospitals, interest bearing Fund (at a bank that didn’t take TARP money), have all Americans pay $100.00 each month for each person, and this way, everyone can be insured, pay their ‘fair share’, and cut out the stealing by the ‘blood-sucking ticks’. In the old days, when integrity, honesty and respest stood for something people paid their own way, paid their own doctors and hospitals, and America wasn’t bankrupt then! I wonder why?
"Millions face shrinking Social Security Payments" todays’ headlines! Politicians robbed the system to pay for all social and welfare programs, which, of course, these people weren’t entitled.
Folks, can’t you see that Taxpayers are paying for all the extra offices, the trips, the lunches, the fine healthcare, etc. for politicians, while we’re doing without?
America is now an enslaved nation with trillions of dollars in debt and all because of deceit and greed. I’m quoting John Adams - "There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword, the other is by debt." Surely, you remember history and the Dictator that said "We’ll destroy America and never lift a finger!" If this doesn’t wake you up, nothing will!
At no time have Taxpayers heard the words "We, the politicians, in order to pay off trillions we borrowed without Taxpayers consent, are going to reduce our benefits, salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly!"

Healthcare & Politicians Lies and Deceit

This appeared in High Point Enterprise newspaper 8/12/09. Bob Blakeneys’ article called ‘Bush Deficits’ makes Taxpayers wonder why he didn’t go back to the Kennedy/Carter Administration to get the true figures, when politicians started give-a-ways, handouts, giving illegitimates Taxpayers’ checks they weren’t entitled to, social and welfare programs creating the bankrupting of America! Sad that Blakeney doesn’t want to acknowledge that people, of all races and party affiliations, created these social ills which date way past 2002!
There are many ‘long arms’ of government, created by politicians deciding they could deceive Taxpayers into thinking they were actually creating jobs. Didn’t it occur to anyone this way politicians could get bigger salaries, bonuses, and retirements? Looks like it worked, because the politicians convinced the furniture businesses they could make more money with cheaper overseas labor. Nafta and Cafta got put into action in a hurry, just like everything else politicians have their fingers in! Didn’t it occur to businesses it would cost more to ‘ship back and forth’ thus costing millions for products? Politicians stated America could become a ‘service country!’ America is servicing, alright, the Employment Security Office, Social and Welfare programs, and with no manufacturing jobs in site, where’s the money?
Taxpayers want no part in Healthcare or anything else the politicians have their greedy fingers in. Read the 1018 pages! Taxpayers will pay dearly for this radical and socialist mess.
If you want to see what the ‘blood-sucking tics’ really are, look at Freedie, Fannie, AIG, Citi, Automakers, now GM, and anyone taking Taxpayers money, and their lies and deceit!
WHAT WILL BE IN TAXPAYERS’ WALLETS BY 2010?’ Absolutely nothing as all the politicians are doing is ‘borrowing from Peter to pay Paul’ and this, folks, is going to leave America more than trillions in debt to foreigners, ordinary Taxpayers will be in the ‘Poor House’, with no money to buy seeds to plant a garden to feed themselves.

Government must be cut by 90%

Taxpayers can always tell the people who've owned a business! The politician bunch think by hiring all these people (to CYA) they're creating good things when the only thing they're creating is more debt load for the Taxpayers and loss of American stability. These people shouldn't be entitled to anything in health care or anything else that Taxpayers have had to work so hard for. The bailouts of AIG (& rest) prove this point and this is why they bailed out to protect themselves, while sending a $300.00 stimulus check to the Taxpayer making him think "we're still working for you!" Never have I seen such a bunch of criminals. Madoff doesn't hold a light to them-he just got caught! Instead of seeing all the old manufacturing buildings vacant and boarded up, isn't it about time to board up the fancy government buildings and send these people to the very foreign country they sold America to, taking all their assets to pay off the trillions of dollars, they've borrowed without Taxpayers consent! If you're a Taxpayer, you should be fed up with Obama, his administration and bragging about his healthcare! His favorite “This Healthcare isn't about me. I have great insurance and so does every member of Congress.” Wouldn't you, as a Taxpayer, wonder why politicians have better healthcare,doctors, salaries, and retirements? If American Taxpayers are smart, they'll go back to “Pay as you go” system for medical expenses, insurance, and everything else, that includes stopping politicians and insurance companies from taking your last penny! “If you don't work, have never paid social security, live off social and welfare programs, why should you receive anything that Taxpayers have worked for?” America doesn't need bigger government nor anything else controlled by a radical and socialist government, let alone National Healthcare! ‘Fair Tax', to include property taxes, and ‘pay as you go' for doctors and hospitals, would cut theft and tons of useless paperwork. Trillions would be saved! At no time have Taxpayers heard the words “We, the politicians, in order to pay off trillions we borrowed without Taxpayers consent, are going to reduce our benefits, salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly!” This is one actual insurance/government billing. Check out your ‘Explanation of Benefit' regarding Medicare and your private insurance. If your doctor billed for $233.00, Medicare paid $76.20, and your private carrier said it was OK to pay $19.05, this should tell you about hidden costs? The following was sent to me and I'm sending it along! ===================================================================================== IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT! Take Social Security for instance! "I HEREWITH FIRMLY STATE THAT I WILL NOT VOTE FOR ANY POLITICIAN, REGARDLESS OF THE OTHER ISSUES, IF HE DOES NOT SPONSOR AND SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING LEGISLATION. THAT INCLUDES EVERYONE STANDING FOR NEXT ELECTION. LET US SHOW OUR LEADERS IN WASHINGTON "PEOPLE POWER" AND THE POWER OF THE INTERNET. . and GET A BILL STARTED TO PLACE ALL POLITICIANS ON SOCIAL SECURITY, CUT THEIR SALARIES AND RETIREMENTS TO $12,000.00 YEARLY. You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare elevation in society. They felt they should have a special plan for themselves. So, many years ago they voted in their own benefit plan. In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need to change it. After all, it is a great plan, but just for them spending more and more ot Taxpayers money. For all practical purposes their plan works like this: When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die. Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments.. For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to draw $7,800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawing $275, 000.00 during the last years of their lives. This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two Dignitaries. Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their lives. Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00 NADA..! ZILCH... This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up the tab for this plan. The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds; "OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK "! From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into, every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer). We can expect to get an average of $1,000 per month after retirement. It's time to "Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and Congressmen!" Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us Then sit back.... And see how fast they would fix it. It would be changed within the day! America is now an enslaved nation with trillions of dollars in debt and all because of deceit and greed. I'm quoting John Adams - “There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword, the other is by debt.” Surely, you remember history and the Dictator that said “We'll destroy America and never lift a finger!” If this doesn't wake you up, nothing will!

PAY AS YOU GO BEST WAY FOR TAXPAYERS

If American Taxpayers are smart, they’ll demand to go back to "Pay as you go" system for medical expenses, insurance, and everything else, that includes stopping politicians and insurance companies from taking the last penny from you!
Taxpayers don’t really care about your party affiliation; therefore, the article under HPE Guest Column 6/28/09 "GOP Health plan doesn’t address real issues" I’m quoting ‘Then maybe there wouldn’t be 45 million uninsured in America!’ According to statistics, population shows approximately 305 million Americans, subtract the 45 million (that’s mentioned in article) - which is 15% of us, right, with no health insurance. This leaves 255 million, or 85%, with insurance; therefore, as usual, something doesn’t add up.
America doesn’t need anything else controlled by a radical and socialist government, let alone National Healthcare! ‘Fair Tax’, to include property taxes, and ‘pay as you go’ for doctors and hospitals, would cut theft and tons of useless paperwork. Trillions would be saved by Taxpayers for their own families!
At no time have Taxpayers, that have a job at present, heard the words "We, the politicians, in order to pay off trillions we borrowed without Taxpayers consent, are going to reduce our salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly, which would benefit America!"
This is one actual insurance/government billing. Stop and wonder "Where’s the money" for this joke of a healthcare for all? ‘Explanation of Benefit’ in which Medicare and your private insurance, which you pay, in addition to what little they pay out for you to your doctors after you’ve paid big bucks. If your doctor billed for $233.00, Medicare paid $76.20, and your private carrier said it was OK to pay $19.05, I don’t suppose it will ever occur to receivers that this type ‘welfare program’ is OK. May articles have been written that Social Security/Medicare paid dearly for people’s care, including gastric bypass (which one could start by pushing their chair away from table) which they couldn’t afford, including the Viagra, Cialis, Intense, and TV Programs telling the world about your sex life! "If you don’t work, have never paid social security, why should you receive anything that Taxpayers have worked for?"

Being self employed, never accepting any type government/grant money, and remembering when insurance became Mandatory started myself and my employees to thinking ‘if our insurance was running $100.00 month for a family of three (3)’, what would it be when we had to start paying the insurance companies to handle paperwork for government/politicians, illegitimates, social and welfare programs and anything else that was forced on Taxpayers and small business owners! Well, now we know, don’t we?"
I’m quoting John Adams - "There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword, the other is by debt." America is now an enslaved nation with trillions of dollars in debt and all because of deceit and greed. Surely, you remember history and the Dictator that said "We’ll destroy America and never lift a finger!" If this doesn’t wake you up, nothing will!

Cutting Politicians from Insurance & Businesses


‘Pair ready to tackle health care overhaul’, states Ms. Sebelius and Ms. DeParle! Why haven’t they already ‘overhauled’ this system! They’ve been around the DC block a time or two! Taxpayers say ‘thanks, but no thanks!’ These seasoned politicians know it won’t work. They have too much time on their hands. It’s obvious this led Freddie, Fannie, HUD, AIG, Automakers, and anyone else taking Taxpayers’ money, for endless money pits, into bankruptcy!
It’s time to go back to the ‘pay as you go’ for doctors and hospitals! ‘Fair Tax’, to include property, should be top priority! Everyone must pay their share, including politicians! Otherwise, it’s ‘Discrimination against Taxpayers!’
Politicians salaries and retirements should be cut to $12,000.00 yearly! If this isn’t acceptable, then Taxpayers will sell them a one-way ticket to the foreign country they sold America to, take assets to pay the trillions they’ve borrowed without Taxpayers’ consent! After bankrupting America, these are the only options; unless, of course, they prefer to be sent to Guantanamoas some politicians are no better than the ones sitting in prisons; therefore, along with rest of killers, rapists, and thieves, of all races, this is where they need to be!
"Putting the cart before the horse"! When politicians took over, the Moonshiners’ stills, for the revenue of course, started bottling, selling the booze, locking you up for drinking it, and furnishing a tax-paid attorney, clothes, medicine, and food. Exorbitant costs and an endless money pit for Taxpayers, wouldn’t you say? Politicians, now, want to build infrastructures without having textile and manufacturing jobs in America! Another ‘Cart before the horse’ hair-brained scheme!
Taxpayers want Obama to live up to his stated ‘he’d go over line by line and eliminate the endless money pits!’ Well, what’s he waiting for?

Cut Politicians Salaries & Retirements to $12,000.00 yearly


At no time have Taxpayers, that have a job at present, heard the words "We, the politicians, in order to pay off trillions we borrowed without Taxpayers consent, are going to reduce our salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly!
I’m quoting John Adams - "There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword, the other is by debt." America is now an enslaved nation with trillions of dollars in debt and all because of deceit and greed. Surely, you remember history and the Dictator that said "We’ll destroy America and never lift a finger!"
Redistributing the wealth has been tried for decades. Didn’t work then, won’t work now! ‘Fair Tax’, to include property taxes, must take place! It’s time to stop ‘Discriminating against Taxpayers!’ For decades, politicians, their exorbitant spending, greed, deceit, and bad judgement, has banktupted social security! SSI won’t be fixed as long as it’s given to illegitimates and others who don’t work! If you can call social security a retirement account, it belonged only to retired, hard-working people. Tent city or Guantanamo comes to mind when Taxpayers think of politicians and their disregard for the hard-working person! Isn’t it time to send these ‘fat cat politicians/criminals’ away so they’ll know what it’s like to grow their own food, work to eat and have nothing left over!
America doesn’t need anything else controlled by a radical and socialist government, let alone National Healthcare! It looks like folks need to go back to ‘pay as you go’ for doctors and hospitals, cutting theft and hype. Trillions would be saved by Taxpayers for their own families!
hile I’m on a roll, Taxpayers shouldn’t be paying for Viagra, Cialis, new ‘intense’ for women, gastro surgery, and illegitmates, let alone TV ads! Common sense has gone ‘bye-bye!’

Ideas for Obama's "Tightening governments' Belts"

Dear President Obama,
You’ve asked for ideas to tighten governments’ belts! Taxpayers, the few that have jobs left, would like to bring several critical issues to the table that would be a beginning to paying off trillions of dollars, borrowed without Taxpayers’ consent, and put America back on track by 2035, if put into place immediately!
Government should start running like a business; that is, President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer and a few good people that work, rather than sitting around occupying a seat and burning up dollars America doesn’t have! Its’ obvious, some of these greedy politicians have too much time on their hands and this is why the country has gotten in such dire need of change! Layoffs and job cuts have to be done! Its’ time to cut politicians salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly! Or better yet, take all politicians assets, pay off all the trillions they’ve borrowed and sell them a one-way ticket to the foreign countries they’ve sold America to! At no time have Taxpayers heard the words "we, the politicians that’s driven America into bankruptcy, will cut our salaries and retirements!"
What an insult to the small business owners, working and struggling to make ends meet while politicians continue towards the bankrupting of America! In the business world, salaries, benefits and jobs are being cut; therefore, its’ time for cuts and layoffs in all phases of government, beginning with ‘our public servants’, that to date, have been servicing themselves and not for Americas’ benefits!
Politicians created Nafta and Cafta, taking Americans’ jobs and stability, and caused a huge breakdown in society! Without textile and furniture manufacturing jobs, how would anyone be able to afford housing, furniture, clothes, autos, or anything else. It shouldn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out brains stopped working - greed took over! Therefore, instead of government bailouts, handouts, Freddie, Fannie, HUD, AIG, Banks, Automakers, or any company in bed with government and politicians, these ‘endless money pit programs’ should be cut completely out, as so many of these ‘politically motivated useless departments’ have never worked! It’s real chaos for America! 1977 started the downhill trend of spending, by all politicians, for social and welfare programs, and it has now put America in jeopardy! All these programs, including non-profit organizations, should be stopped immediately!
Beginning with the cutting of aforementioned critical issues, 'Fair Tax', to include property taxes, should follow, as everyone that wants to be a responsible and constructive American must pay their fair share of taxes, and stop making it the burden of the cash-straped homeowner thats’ barely getting by, since government intervention!
Until government and politicians change their ‘tax and spend’ bad habits, step up to the plate and take responsibility for the bad debts created by you, ‘you’re not solving the problem’ - ‘you are the problem!’
