Will obama stop social security payments and blame repubs?

[ShootSpeeders]

Lot of talk about that but the SSA is agency in the executive dept and thus under control of obozo. If the payments stop its because obozo stopped them.

Michael Rivero of WRH.com makes an interesting point about this. The govt tells us that social security is an insurance fund that you pay into and the govt holds the money till you retire. So they should have no way to stop the checks.

We all know it's a lie but that's what the govt says.

 

[Moonglow]

Notification has been given that the SS funds and military will have their dough.

 

[S.J.]

Obama will do whatever he can to cause as much pain for the American people if he thinks Republicans will get the blame. He doesn't give a shit about American citizens.

 

[NYcarbineer]

It's the debt ceiling freeze that threatens social security.

 

[Hoffstra]

SS won't stop.

Nor will ObamaCare.

S.J., the reactionaries of the far right have proven this week they hate Americans and America if they cannot have their way.

 

[velvtacheeze]

No. The checks will keep going out, despite the decades long effort of conservatives to stop them. And don't dare tell me you have not wished to stop them, conservatives. Because you have, and everyone knows you have.

 

[ShootSpeeders]

They better not stop the SS checks while welfare payments still go out. SS is money the retirees are OWED while welfare is just charity!!!

Not true. The Government receives funds every month. There is money to pay Social Security. If it stops it is because the President orders it stopped.

Who listens to you? You're a phoney and everyone knows it.

Social Security employees only partially cut. Checks to go out normally.

If they default, social security payments won't go out on time. Any of you republican retirees who depend on social security better write your congressman. Tell them ixney on the efaultdey.

 

[Dutch]

Republicans fighting for social security. What's next gay marriage?

On Fox News last night, Michele Bachmann confirmed that Republicans were happy about the government shutting down, telling Sean Hannity "this is about the happiest I've seen members in a long time."

Piss off the silver assasins? His own people would hang him for that.

Ahh the power of a welfare dependent society. If only the nation could afford it. Just gotta close that 2 trillion dollar a year deficit spending and we'll get there!
