Taking away what was paid for is wrong

Rant of the day but can't help it. I've been listening to the talking heads and ending up scratching mine.

The House speaker says Democrats' insistence on higher taxes prevents any chance Republicans could support a comprehensive deficit reduction deal. FULL STORY

Social Security has already been paid for by millions of Americans and all of us expected to retire after all the years of not only working, but paying into the system. Now some in congress want to cut it?

We paid into Medicare and some in congress want to cut it?

Veterans paid the debt when they joined the military and now some in congress want to cut their benefits?

All of us have already paid the bill and some in congress want to take away from us to fund the tax breaks for the rich saying they are the "job creators" but have not proven any of what they say is true. The tax breaks for them have been around for all the years we lost jobs and even though they just got another round of tax breaks, the unemployment went up again.

They complain about the Stimulus Bills but never mention the fact that there have been many states with the money unspent. So no, the money has not paid off simply because it is still sitting in the bank. Florida didn't spend all of their's and we have a high unemployment rate. DAH!

Some in congress are not even ashamed they say what they say and do what they do. Maybe that's because most of them are rich and they benefit from the tax breaks they give themselves and their friends while the rest of us paid for all of it. Didn't they think we'd notice?
