D’oh! Simpson Has a Cow Over Social Security

Former Wyoming Republican Senator Alan Simpson, now serving as a member of the deficit commission co-chairman, milked a new controversy over Social Security when he wrote an email to a women’s group leader stating, “I’ve made some pretty smart cracks about people on Social Security who milk it to the last degree. We’ve reached a point now where it’s like a milk cow with 310 million tits! Call when you get honest work!” Do you agree with Simpson? Should Social Security be eliminated or privatized like many Republicans would like? Personally, I think that this could become a good issue for Democrats to exploit. Republicans want to cut government spending and they would love to eliminate many entitlement programs that people rely on and have paid into. Please comment below.

  1. The problem with Social Security is that people who never put any money into it are taking money out of it. That’s why it’s going to expire between 2018 and 2022.

    There will always be people (and I know a bunch of them) who will suck the government teet dry if offered the opportunity. Hard work should be the only way to get by in this world. We all need to do our share.
