As you know social security will not recieve a cost of living raise this year and the system may be bankrupt within three years. why is no one bringing this up and why does it seem no one cares about our senior citizens do you feel Mr Obama Cares
In the new plan, social security payments will not go up with inflation, thus those on social security will have cuts in their rates and getting less each year. Obama's big brain buster to help the people? Go figure, and the trillions spent since January could have made every single person in the USA a millionaire, but nobody saw a dime except autocompanies and foriegn banks who were bailed out including 100 million sent to Mexico to help fight the drug war. The Government and Obama could care less about Americans.

Anyone who REALLY cares for senior citizens or citizens in general isn't going to be in Congress or the Senate or 'president' of any country... What a joke.

How true your statement is . It hurts me to think of all the senior citizens that haft to take a Back seat to some forein dictator . A war in afganistan . Healthcare reform .some Bankers that won't even report where they embezzeled all the money to. Or a car Maker. These are our most precious and Loved group of people in our country and we treat them like dirt .

You are right...Think also of all those wounded soldiers who've been sent to Iraq and Afghanistan. What are they coming home to? A broken country! The country has been hijacked while they were gone fighting for it! Makes a lot of sense of course...

I think he's been just a little bit busy, with trying to keep the economy from going into a Great Depression, a continuing war against terrorism and stuff. There's also the goal of getting some kind of decent health care reform passed this year and that's not going too well so far... if you're on Social Security you probably are on Medicare as well if I understand correctly so at least you have that which is more than I and far too many others have (health care wise).
Point being, there's only so many fires anybody can stamp out at one time. See his hands? They're hands, not wands... he can't just wave them and make everything perfect! LOL!
SS hasn't gone broke and isn't likely to be allowed to go broke, at least for the time being. My generation will likely never see a penny of what we've paid into it however which really suxs but oh well.
Regards and hang in there.

i am on ss and i set better than a lot of them on it, i feel for them but i don't mind doing my share to help the country.. trouble is a lot live below poverty level
I will likely never see social security but what I have seen is very bad . In Michagan there is talk of elderly living on dog food because they can't affor to buy proper food. As far as haveing to many priorities our eldrly should be our Priority. I don't want to get into what I believe about Mr Obama'a priorities. In life you talkle one problem at a time defeat it then move to the next not open up five diffrent fires to put out all at once .

Still though, the 'commander in chief'? the 'leader of the free world' can't tackle three or four problems at a time? Maybe he should think about the issues instead of what sort of caviar would go good with which wine... The President of the United States, impotent? Powerless? I'll believe that when I can't multitask

Elderly people need less food.
Obama should set up this new internet and solar/wind/deceased old people energy thingybob and a free CS style dating site for senior citizens and then they can stay at home all day nibbling their doggie food, helping the canned pet food industry recover from this world recession AND posting pervy emails to each other.

I am ex Millitary also and when I see the plight of the returning GI's it breaks my heart I work with a lot of ex Millitary. several that I was working with have taken there own lives. The VA was overwhelmed and they couldn't get the help they needed. I am sorry to say I should have cought the sign"s of one, He talked to me about all the problems he was haveing at home . He had recieved a phone call form his Wife saying she couldn't take any more and was leaving him. we talked for quite some time after he left he went home got his gun and went to a Boat Launch and ended his life . He told me when He left he was going to get some help. Then to see all the senior citizens that are now starting to get very scared . I talked to one Lady nearly 100 years old she has spent her savings and rely's on social security Her daughter won't let her near the news when she haerd about social security failing she started crying. He daughter is also on social security. It is getting very serious whit these people now

Actually, he has been very busy taking vacations, flying all over the world at a cost of about 60K per hour, and seeing to it those who funded his campaign profit very well..
