    Social Security and Medicare has been earned by the recipients; neither is an "entitlement"!

    The fact that most people barely make it on their S.S. should also be taken into consideration..

    You may think this is your money to do whatever you feel like doing with it but the PEOPLE have paid into these programs and expected a return for our money. These are Not entitlements.

    Cut your own benefits and go on SS and Medicare only.I feel quite sure you will find a solution very quickly if that is what all of you have to rely on also!

    I don't understand why Social Security and Medicare are the first benefits to come under fire. We have all paid for these benefits and don't deserve to have these benefits stripped from us. Furthermore, the seniors receiving these benefits surely don't compare to the upper 2% of our country. All of you need to find other resources to attack and leave our money alone. How about cutting your salaries and benefits??? If our country could vote on that suggestion, you better believe that Congress would be making the concessions instead of our seniors and middle class!!!!

    I have paid into SS since I was 12 and now you want to make me wait longer. Why doesn't congress try to live off what the average American does. No help, no freebies and figure out how to pay your bills, put gas in your car and has something left over to get food. Forget the medication or health care you might need.Let get real, most of congress does not know what it's like to go hungry, worry about losing your home and what can of soup will I have tonight.

    This is not an entitlement, but an investment that we make. As some people well know and would like to gamble away.

    This is something we paid for and not you... with your separate pension plan, just pay back what you have taken out of Social Security and make some cuts to the congressional pension program.

    These are not entitlements if I have been paying for them for the past 45 yrs! Hands off SSA and Medicare.

    We have paid into these programs with the promise that they would be there for us when we get older and need them. There are many other things that the government wastes money on - fix those, and stop RAIDING OUR RETIREMENT SAVINGS to pay for other things!
