The people who voted for the boondoggle can pay the extra taxes to cover it.
Well, I take it you'll be refunding your soc sec and paying for your own HC then
Lol, always love this argument.
I can't vouche for Bripat, but I am willing to bet, based on what I've seen, that he shares my views on this.
Yes, I'm down to let y'all keep the Soc Sec taxes I've been paying for the past 15 or so years and never pay me a cent back, so long as I can stop paying into that bullshit pyramid effective immediately. The medicare taxes, too. I'm down to take full responsibility of my healthcare -and- my retirement, as long as I don't have to take partial responsibility for yours or anyone else's except when I choose to. None of this threat of persecution for tax evasion bullshit. I can put together a much better retirement plan -and- take care of my healthcare more efficiently than some bureaucratic one-size-fits-all bullshit solution.
Kinda my Ben Franklin take on these government programs. I prefer freedom over security. This includes my preference of economic/financial freedom over social security.
If I don't have kids, I -still- don't owe you extra, cuz I never -owed- it to you to buy into your bullshit retirement safety net in the first place. I was forced into it without my consent. Once you reconcile that, it might set you straight on who "owes" what to who.
The liberal theory seems to be that only those who support their socialist boondoggles are entitled to collect the benefits. If you oppose paying for the boondoggle, then you are entitled to nothing.
