    Millions of Floridians have paid into Social Security and Medicare and rely on these programs as they get older. We must keep our promise to the people of Florida and the nation by working to strengthen these programs — not cut them!https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/12/01/gop-eyes-post-tax-cut-changes-to-welfare-medicare-and-social-security/ …

        STOP calling them “entitlements”! I worked for 50 years and paid into the system every paycheck.

        Social Security is one of the great programs that lifted this nation out of the Great Depression. It must be protected and strengthened as a national priority. It is not a gift to billionaires. It's RETIREMENT security for working people.

        And a starting salary out of high school in 1970 is equivalent to $48,000 in 2017.

        which is just fine, but Social Security was designed to pay seniors for a couple years max.. nothing more. See the problem?

        I'm not into class warfare.. The fact is is was never intended to function as it does now. It needs to be changed, but people get very upset when you take other peoples money away from them. Never understood that.

        It's a myth that SS is insolvent. Increased longevity has not made it insolvent. Removing the wage cap will solve any long term liquidity concerns with an aging population as long as Congress doesn't dip into the fund. They want to gift it to Wall St.

        A large majority of Americans will rely on S.S. in order to retire. All tax paying workers have paid into this from day 1 of working and now @SpeakerRyan & the corrupt @GOP want to cut this? Republicans continue to be a disgrace and pure evil

        Have not all workers in USA earned Social Security, etc? R elected officials obeying the 9th Commandment by trying 2 give tax cut but clearly implying essential programs will have 2 be cut 2 give tax cut? USA needs robust revenue flowing in & debt cut as basis of true tax plan.

        You know we have plenty of seniors here in Florida. I am one. Losing the paltry funds we get is insulting. Please do something. You know your service will warrant you coverage for the remainder of your life. My $792 per month will not afford me shelter, food, clothing and meds.
