Medicare and Social Security

News from Washington today is that the medicare system and the social security system are in trouble. News? Ever since I was a teenager I have heard talk about reforming the social security system. Indeed it has been the accident of my birth (and hundreds of thousands of others) that have precipated this crisis. But I have been hearing about this for the last almost 40 years. It is interesting that once republicans had proposed investing in the private companies and the dems were really upset about that.

Now fast forward to today, medicare and Social security are hurting and the dems want to take it over. Only because it serves their power grabbing, freedom depriving needs.
We need to preserve freedom at all costs. We need to make our representatives work for our needs. And not their partys or their own needs for power.

What happened to serving the interest of the American people. Do they even wonder why their approval ratings are so low? Only 39% of the American people believe that congress is doing a good job. I just have no faith in congress at all. All they want to do is take more of our money and give it to their special interests. What ever happened to a level playing field? What ever happened to doing what is right?

We ought to elect a whole new bunch of representatives and senators. Every last one of them. The reason the founding fathers had terms was to avoid this career politician corruption. Throw them all out.
