Alan Simpson Is Right: Government Is a Giant Milk Cow

My wife and I have paid into social security our entire working lives. Over 40 years and we've paid in over $250,000 to social security much of it when a dollar was a real dollar. Now people are calling this a cows tit and that people should be ashamed of asking for it. Fine, give me back what I paid into it at

just 3% interest and you can take your social security and shove it.

Or how about this. Jimmy Carter put on the social security rolls millions of people who never, I mean NEVER paid a dime into it. Pass a law, if you paid into it, you get paid out of it. If you never paid in, you never get paid out.

Finally vote every single member of Congress and the Senate OUT. Replace all of them and put in term limits, one term 4 years and you're out AND without a pension for life, in fact none at all. Secondly pass a law that every single law passed by Congress, the Senate or signed behind closed doors and after a session closes, that all members of every part of the Federal government will have to live by the same rules. For a pension they get social security, period.

No special healthcare, no special pension, no special retirement benefits, and match all government pay to that comparible to the private sector.

Bring our jobs back from overseas. Make it profitable (tax wise) for companies to employ Americans here on on soil. Punish those companies that move to Ireland and other countries by putting a special import tax on their goods which will be as least as much as it would have been (cost wise) to build it in America.

Its time to take back this Country from the special interest groups in Washington. I believe come this Nov., the nation will be shocked to their very core about just how hostile the people are over how this Country has been sold down the river.

Last do away with the Federal Reserve system. Let Congress make the money as the constitution and our founding fathers designed the system.
