Democrats and Republicans are fighting in Congress, regarding the debt ceiling, while President Obama threatens to cut off Social Security, stating he cannot guarantee that seniors checks will go out next month, on August 3, 2011.
Has he lost his mind. Seniors are going to remember that and attribute it to him. They paid into Social Security for decades, to receive their money during old age and not for a president to summarily decided such a thing.
If President Obama had not wasted so much money on unnecessary spending initiatives and thrown so much cash out the White House window, on overblown stimulus packages, with significant funds stolen and misappropriated, America would not be in this bind.
Barack Obama
President Obama should have raised taxes on the rich from day one of his presidency and used the funds to pay down the national debt and create jobs. President Clinton created 23,000,000 jobs by raising taxes during his time in office, which was recorded as the most financially prosperous in U.S. history. Others have done the same in the past, in other nations, such as Margaret Thatcher in Britain, creating new jobs with freshly raised tax money.
Now President Obama has his back to the wall, after massive, fruitless expenditures and is threatening seniors over Social Security they already paid for. What exactly did the government do with their money. As the Judiciary Report sees is, messing with Social Security is like dipping into pension funds, something you just don't do. You really must not want a second term.
The Democrats need to desist with the excessive spending and the Republicans in Congress need to give up on not raising taxes, because the money is needed. America has many billionaires, millionaires and individuals earning over $250,000 per year that can pay higher personal (and business) income taxes. They live in America and should pay it, after reaping all the funds they did off the nation.
