Is that an average?

It should be worked out so that the people on the higher end get the cuts more than the poor.

Fifty five thousand dollars worth of cuts to a poor senior wouold be life threatening.

But then, why the hell are we even talking about cutting Social Security?

I was reading over the weekend that Obama gave over 150 billons of dollars to the nuke warhead industry so he would feel comfortable negotiationg with the Republicans regarding the SALT TREATY meetings that he held last fall!!

This is a very rich nation. We should tax the damn rich, quit supporting the war industry and the wars, and friggin tax the rich.
