Alan Simpson calls seniors the Greediest Generation…
Here’s a response in a letter from a fellow in Montana …
“Hey Alan, let’s get a few things straight…
1. As a career politician, you have been on the
public dole for FIFTY YEARS.
2. I have been paying Social Security taxes for 48
YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63).
3. My Social Security payments, and those of millions
of other Americans, were safely tucked away in an
interest bearing account for decades until you
political pukes decided to raid the account and give
OUR money to a bunch of zero ambition losers in
return for votes, thus bankrupting the system and
turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that
would have made Bernie Madoff proud
4. Recently, just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, you and
your ilk pulled the proverbial football away from
millions of American seniors nearing retirement and
moved the goalposts for full retirement from age 65
to age 67. NOW, you and your shill commission is
proposing to move the goalposts YET AGAIN.
5. I, and millions of other Americans, have been
paying into Medicare from Day One, and now you morons
propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because
you idiots mismanaged other parts of the economy to
such an extent that you need to steal money from
Medicare to pay the bills
6. I, and millions of other Americans, have been
paying income taxes our entire lives, and now you
propose to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because
you incompetent bastards spent our money so
profligately that you just kept on spending even
after you ran out of money. Now, you come to the
American taxpayers and say you need more to pay off
YOUR debt.
To add insult to injury, you label us “greedy” for
calling “bullshit” on your incompetence. Well,
Captain Bullshit, I have a few questions for YOU.
1. How much money have you earned from the American
taxpayers during your pathetic 50-year political career?
2. At what age did you retire from your pathetic
political career, and how much are you receiving in
annual retirement benefits from the American taxpayers?
3. How much do you pay for YOUR government provided
health insurance?
4. What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare
benefits are you proposing in your disgusting
deficit reduction proposal, or, as usual, have you
exempted yourself and your political cronies?
It is you, Captain Bullshit, and your political
co-conspirators who are “greedy”. It is you and they
who have bankrupted America and stolen the American
dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers.
And for what? Votes. That’s right, sir. You and
yours have bankrupted America for the sole purpose of
advancing your pathetic political careers. You know
it, we know it, and you know that we know it.
And you can take that to the bank, you miserable son
of a bitch.”
