Let's eliminate Social Security - Right Now... not later.
Let's elimnate Medicare - Right Now... not later.
Eliminate Public education (religion can take up the slack).
Privatize all roads.
Eliminate all transit funding.
Eliminate all regulation of: Airports, cars, factories, food, medicine, banking and finance, insurance, corporate accountability, workplace safety.
Let hospitals require cash up-front prior to being seen (that way they don't lose money).
Eliminate all corporate taxes.
Turn all public entities into private, for profit enterprises, including courts and public safety.
Eliminate libraries in lieu of private book stores.

This country will finally be fair and balanced for those who can afford it.
Freedom a la carte

Sounds like a Tea Party dream, huh?

Sounds like Afghanistan to me.

Rick Perry already called Social Security a Ponzi scheme.
Medicare and healthcare reform are unpopular with the far right (unless it means deregulation of insurance companies).
A huge part of our military budget funds private firms, aka "Military Contractors" in countries of combat to do what the US military used to do.

That's not melodrama. That's what's already happening.

How is S.S. NOT a ponzi scheme?  Bernie Madoff is in prison for pulling the same tactic.

I think the 51% that do not pay taxes at all  should start paying there fair share also. I am so tired of having to carry them on my back all year.


to quote Mark Twain "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics"

Statistics can be manipulated, I'd like to see a breakdown on the demographics of this claim
if they include the elderly who now survive on Social Security because Wall Street robbed their retirement savings the Corporation they spent their life working for magically eliminated their pension and medical benefits with the stroke of a pen, or the young who slave in partime jobs for minimum wage.
Yet your Republican Brethren feel minimum wage is to high and the law should be eliminated in the name of free markets and right to work laws...

This is more Fox Noise partisan theatrics to fuel the right-wing hollow heads of the tea party.

Expatriot, you can go directly to the IRS for that info.
It will give you the breakdown of who paid what, it also gives a breakdown of those working, retired, etc.
