I don't like what Congress is doing with Social Security and Medicare. Whenever they want a raise, Congress allows it when no one is around. Now this year, Congress took $4,000 out of Social Security and Medicare so that they can get a raise. People pay their taxes to put into Medicare and Social Security, so why should Congress always take it out of there? We put them in there to help the American people, who needs the money for Medicare. Then Congress takes it back out for the $4,000 raise that each of them get.

If it were they who were using the card, they would not stand for it. ...more
