26. then give us the sunny sky version.

you know, the one where Social Security is saved by the Democratic Party because they are the party of labor, and liberals and free thinkers that would never put the safety net at risk.

I'm sorry but I'm fucking tired after working for 45 years outside banging nails, carrying plywood and doing all that shit that most people think is for idiots.

I want what I contributed to. If all this was great for the masses our senators and congress people would be falling all over themselves to get into our system instead of the great one they have.
