    We as Americans, have put our hard earned money into this account, thru the years, and no one should be able to take it for their own uses. Its like someone stealing our money, that's rightfully ours, from our bank account. A robber or a hacker, either way, its so wrong.

    The conservatives not wanting to pay back the surplus borrowed by Bush to fund a tax break for the wealthy is NOT fiscally responsible! It's theft, and dissolving social services is just a way to hide it. The most un- American thing I ever heard of.

    repeat: THEY ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS! WE PAID FOR THEM. Remove the limit of 108,000 on taxed income to pay for SS.

    These pograms are NOT entitlements! They are lifelines that keep people from starving to death on the streets. Expand them and remove the caps!

    Socal Security and Medicare are the greatest programs the US has ever implemented. The caps should be removed and they should be expanded! We pay for these programs, they are not "entitelments"! My representatives care nothing about their constituents and only line their own pockets. Our citizns need these programs!

    Congress should have the same retirement system as the rest of us. Then they'd leave Social Security alone.

    This is not an entitlement program. Americans have paid into SS their entire working lives. The fund should not be taken from by anybody, by anybody, for any reason. I'm represented by 2 of the GOP senators and I know they don't have the interests of the elderly as a priority. Both are wealthy and have no clue about people who are not in the same position as them and don't care. The GOP will most assuredly become the 'death panel.' President Obama, pls don't let them take away this small lifeline (my SS is not that much since I didn't have a very high paying job). So many would have nowhere to turn w/o SS and no income to spend for the basic necessities.

    I'm tired of politicans lying about the so-called "entitlements". We're entitled because we PAY for these benefits. Hands off!!

    I paid into this system. It is not a "bonus" paid to a CEO who bankrupted his corporation, it is not a "pension" to a politician who worked only a few years, it is a FUND that I paid into.

    Entitlement is not a dirty word. I am entitled because I've been paying into these funds for 45+ years. Now I am entitled to collect.
