The GOP makes Entitlement sound like a dirty word, like the song lyrics "Money for nuthin and your"
chickschecks "for free." But nothing is further from the truth. We earn a
decreasing amount of interest from the Federal government (high of 11.6% in 1984 to 3.2% in 2016) who takes our FICA/SECA reserve funds and replaces it with Treasury Bonds (loans to the Feds) which the SSA cashes in each year to pay out benefits. So what's the whining about by the GOP member's of Congress who are using our money at a bargain basement interest rate? Who %^&* know!!!

And now T-rump wants to eliminate FICA/SECA OASDI which makes up 50% of the average retiree's income. Boy Howdee I'm glad you sensible farmers and factory workers in the Red States elected Tyrannosaurus-RUMP for President! Nothing like tossing your ethics and self respect out the window for a racist, misogynist ASS HOLE for President.
