OBAMA’S BUDGET PROPOSAL WILL SCREW SOCIAL SECURITY RECIPIENTS


Obama’s new budget plan will alter the way Social Security recipients get their raises.  Currently based on the CPI, (Consumer Price Index), the new plan includes an inflation gauge that would effectively reduce cost-of-living increases for Social Security beneficiaries.  It also proposes using the new calculation for adjusting income tax brackets, which would mean higher payments for many taxpayers.

COMMENTS:
And it’s ObamaCare that screws the elderly in this country by denying them life-extending care on the basis of cost.  Is this what we have come to in this country?  A different form of euthanasia?  Is it truly a case of elimination of the old farts?  Is this the President you voted for?  I really hope you get a good night’s sleep. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I can’t help but feel that Obama and the gun control freaks have no grasp of reality.  They say that, by denying the ability for you and me to have ammo magazines with higher capacity, they will put the shooter in the situation of not being able to fire off as many rounds as quickly against his targets.  Well, that also means that the victim only has a limited number of rounds they can use to fire back.  And, the shooter is not going to comply with the law, anyway.  You’re just handicapping someone’s ability to defend themselves.  (Charlotte ~ Escondido, CA)
A. Right on.  One idiot lawmaker even thought that, once the magazine is empty, you throw it away so that even the high capacity magazines in the hands of bad guys would eventually be used up and gone.  This is the real problem: we gun owners are not dealing with rational and intelligent adversaries. 

Q. The jobs numbers coming out Friday stunk like hell.  Now, Obama is trying to blame Sequestering and the Republicans for the lower jobs numbers.  Doesn’t he ever accept responsibility for anything he does?  (Bertha ~ Redding, CA)
A. No, a thousand times no. 

Q. The Postal Service is trying to sell off old buildings in order to convert assets into money and reduce costs.  But a group of preservationists is madder than hell.  They are saying some of the 600 post offices earmarked for disposal in the agency’s fiscal 2012 report could have historical significance and be sold.  I say we have to start acting responsibly.  If they want to preserve these old buildings, then it should be their money that is put up to do the job, not ours.  (Yance ~ Durango, CO)
A. Well, Yance, I’ll say this: After watching Colorado just pass some really dumb gun legislation, I have to think you are too straight a thinker to be living there.
