Taxing the rich is as fair as means testing seniors to steal their ss checks.

As long as you aren't affected who cares.

Then again maybe all that careful scrimping and investing could come back and bite you in the butt.

=======================================]

Taxing the rich at 39% instead of 33% is the same as taking nearly all of a retiree's income?

No, not even close.

What do people of means need with a ss security check.

That money should go to those who did not have the foresight to plan ahead.

Go on, you tell them that. Tell your representative you are for means testing of people who have paid money for their entire lives into a fund they were promised would be paid back to them.

NAh, I'll let the mob tell them that. Same as they tell the rich they are going to be hit with higher taxes.

Remember , it is always about other peoples money.

95% of working families will get a tax cut under Obama, the other 5% are on their own.

95% of SS will not see a cut in their SS check, the other 5% are on their own.

I really don't see a difference in the fairness equation. 

Pols Promise, Mob says hell, it ain't happening to me, and discrimination is institutionalized.

Some people are just more equal than others.

So it goes.
