This Senior Citizen Nailed It!

Alan Simpson, the Democratic Senator from Wyoming and Co-Chair of Obama's commission to deal with the whopping national deficit, recently called senior citizens the "greediest generation" as he likened Social Security to "a milk cow with 310 million teats".

Below is one letter from an obviously ticked off senior citizen in Montana, who calls sin by its right name and tells it like it is.

Hey, Alan!

Let's get a few things straight.

1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole for 50 years.

2. I have been paying Social Security taxes for 48 years since I entered the work force as a teenager, and I am now 63.

3. My Social Security payments, and those of millions of other fellow Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest-bearing account for decades until YOU and YOUR fellow political pukes decided to raid the account and give MY and MY FELLOW U.S. taxpayers' money to a bunch of zero ambition losers in return for votes, thus bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that would have made Bernie Madoff proud.

4. Just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, YOU and YOUR ilk pulled the proverbial football away from millions of American seniors nearing retirement and moved the goalpost for full retirement from age 65 to age 67. And NOW, YOU and YOUR shill commission are proposing to move the goalpost yet again to age 70. 

5. Millions of Americans and I have been paying into Medicare from "Day One", and now YOU and YOUR fellow morons propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because YOU idiots mismanaged other parts of the economy to such an extent that YOU need to steal money from Medicare to pay for the bills YOU in the federal government unnecessarily created. 

6. Millions of Americans and I have been paying income taxes our entire life, and now YOU propose to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because YOU incompetent bastards spent our money so profligately and YOU just kept on spending even after YOU knew that money had already ran out.

 Now, YOU come to the American taxpayers and say YOU need more to pay off the debt which YOU---the idiots in Washington, DC [and other state capitals] unduly created.
To add insult to injury, YOU now label us "greedy" for calling "bullshit" on YOUR incompetence. Well, Senator Bullshit, I have a few questions for YOU and YOUR pals in Washington, DC. 

1. How much money have YOU earned from the American taxpayers during YOUR pathetic 50-year political career? 

Keep in mind that the salaries and benefits which YOU and YOUR fellow "public servants" which YOU greedily voted for YOURselves, unknown to U.S. taxpayers until after-the-fact, are paid by U.S. taxpayers! 

2. At what age will YOU retire from YOUR political career, and how much will YOU receive in annual retirement benefits at U.S. taxpayers' expense? 

3. How much do YOU pay for YOUR taxpayer-paid health insurance benefits and coverage? 

4. What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare benefits are YOU proposing in YOUR deficit reduction proposal, or have YOU, as usual, exempted YOURself and YOUR political cronies?

It is YOU, Senator Bullshit and YOUR political co-conspirators, who are the "greediest".

 It is YOU and YOUR fellow members of Congress who have bankrupted America and stolen the American dream from millions of loyal, patriotic U.S. taxpayers. For what? For votes. That's right. YOU and YOUR fellow federal and state government legislators have bankrupted America for the sole purpose of advancing YOUR respective political careers.
YOU know it, WE know it, and YOU know that WE know it. And yet YOU miserable son of a b---- have the gall to impute YOUR own untrammeled GREED upon us tax-paying senior citizens and call us as the "greediest generation"?

Senator Bullshit, get YOUR facts straight before YOU open YOUR big mouth and before YOU falsely accuse senior citizens and other U.S. taxpayers of YOUR very own SIN!
