Sucking on the Teat?
Since when is receiving what you "Earned" by hard work, and also contributed towards with your own wages, sucking on the teat?
And that goes for social security, railroad retirement, or any other retirement plan; that is given in exchange for years and years of hard honorable work.
How is it, as so many scumbag yellow journalists are portraying, that compensation paid in the form of a pension; is somehow less "EARNED", deserved and honorable, than had it been paid in wages at the time it was earned?
The only real widespread problem with pensions, is that both governments and corporations alike, have been stealing those those earnings for years, using them for other things instead, and now they are coming up short. So Tough Sh*T - Pay Up anyway! - lest the economy tank even further!
But then again, there are plenty in congress and in the white house too, that don't think we are entitled to even keep our own wages, either! Let alone a pension! Thinking that letting us keep some of it, is somehow costing the government money.
Of course, after those two-faced thieves have destroyed all the wealth once enjoyed by the great American middle class, they'll come a charging in on their bleached white horses, with "free" unearned handouts to save the day, given by pure liberal grace, theirs of course. And they'll tout it loudly.
But that ain't gonna be for free! When we are all finally and totally dependent upon these high-minded thieves, instead of upon our own wages and pensions; those scumbags will command - and we will jump! Just as high as they tell us to! - Lest we personally fall from their not so pure liberal grace!
