I'll also be happy to tell my Father that since he retired after all those years he worked and now he's getting Social Security and Medicaid....that all he's earned in the form of respect is the title of "Lazy Scum".....I mean that is his reward after 60 plus years of being "Hard Working, Regular Folk"

Also.....I better make sure I don't get Laid off......Cuz "POOF" I'm Instantly Lazy Scum.
Hopefully in 25 years there will be a Social Security. You've been paying in and just maybe the poliweenies in DC will not have spent it away.

If they keep taking away the SS cost of living stipend, like they have
for the last 2 years, you may be able to buy a few beers with it
after being on it for 20 years.

We can only hope....but, sadly I ain't betting the farm on it.

I was more upset at the fact that these aren't "Entitlement Programs" Like Welfare where people do absolutely nothing and collect a check.

Social Security and Medicaid are programs that people pay into there entire life so when they retire they have them.....to call somebody a Lazy Scum for using them after paying into them was pretty low IMHO
