Lol, "I don't want government but where's my social security check?"

LOL. They took it, so why shouldn't we want it back?

Exactly. It's only an "entitlement" if you're drawing money you never invested in the program. Illegal aliens, dipshidts too lazy to work, thugs like that. For the rest of us, it's probably the only retirement option we had that was worth putting money into.

Corporations fold, rob the retirement fund and give it to CEO's who make every year what most of us made in a lifetime, and then shuffle the top of the pyramid and create a "new" company with the money they stole from their workers.

The advantage here is that we can vote the people in charge out of office. But, we almost never do. And they count on that, that and brainwashing the young into thinking that the folks who are receiving the benefits are getting something for nothing. Soon, those young folks will be old, and suddenly they'll realize that they whined so much about the money that the old folks were getting "for nothing", and now their money's gone, too.

Wah! Wa-aah!
