Social Security is not "broke" in the least.

The Average American Family does not make $50,000, 47% of Americans live within or just above poverty according to the 2010 census.

Enjoy losing about $100 in cash pay a month, starting at the end of next week, thanks to your beloved GOP. Enjoy! It will be okay. I'm sure you have a color TV.

Oh: but you might want to increase your contributions to your local churches, because millions are going to be thrown off the unemployment rolls New Years Day, too. I know you are a big believer that "the community" takes care of the poor, homeless and starving, not the government.

So even though your personal pay check is cut starting New Years Day by about $40 (thanks GOP!) you should increase your charitable contributions to help your newly starving neighbors who the GOP just threw off unemployment. After all, you say it's a community responsibility, not the governments!

I hope your Grandma or parents don't get sick. Doctors that treat Medicare patients just got 27% of their reimbursement income taken away by the GOP starting New Year's Day. Your parents or grandparents health care prices just went up by 1/3. Thanks, GOP!

The ss fund holds $2.6 trillion, none of it in cash, ALL OF IT IN IOU's from the treasury. You know 'eggs in one basket!'

Starting January 1 (11 days from now) everyone's paycheck will be smaller, by about $40 - $125 a month.

Starting 11 days from now, millions will be thrown off unemployment, thus will be newly hungry, homeless, etc.

Effective January 1, doctors who treat Medicare patients will lose 27% of their reimbursement. Thus anyone you know on Medicare will have their health care costs at the doctors office increase in 11 days.

The is due entirely and 100% to the Republican House lead by Speaker John Boehner.

Happy New Year!

Except the wealthy. Those who make over $108,000 won't have any tax increase at all on the funds over that amount.

^^^^^^^^^ forgetting, actually at this point ignoring the fact the top half are paying 97% of income taxes.

What does income tax have to do with payroll taxes? Nothing at all.

But hey, if you want to talk all taxes, the bottom half pay a far larger percentage of their income to taxes than your beloved wealthy, who make out like bandits.

I only pay 15% on capital gains. A portion of my income I don't pay any SS taxes on at all. Meanwhile, you pay all that, and more. Enjoy :-) Keep working your ass off for me, Dell. I do appreciate it.
