Ron Johnson Not Willing To Put His Money Where His Mouth Is

Senator Ron Johnson claims he wants to save Social Security but he doesn't want to pay for it.



By Chris capper Liebenthal — July 15, 2023

It's a well known fact that Senator Ron Johnson wants to cut Social Security and even privatize it. However, despite this being common knowledge, RoJo keeps up the pretense that he really, really wants to save it.

The answer to the Social Security issue is simple - make the rich pay their fair share. Right now, they only pay up to a certain amount of income and don't have to pay any more no matter how much money they make, often off the backs of their employees.

But when push came to shove, RoJo showed his true colors again and sided with the rich:

I just wonder if this idiot knows how many Wisconsinites live month to month from/ on or off their social security in the state.....let me help this shit for brain's twit out......and does this twit understand that recipients of their social security do not make $174,000 a year like this twit makes being a elected idiot....from Wisconsin... ..

1. I live in WI. and you're dead nuts spot on.

2. Let me say Wisconsin deserves better, this idiot cannot even google Wisconsin and Social Security

recipients or even look up at web site for SSA to see the answer..... and what really classic is that could not even think outside the box and divide recipients and money to find out what the average income the recipients get or to just go down to Table 2 and see what each recipients get's ...........and he sits on committees......

3. They had a chance to ditch him in 2020

Now we're all stuck with the creep who tried to overturn an election.

4. I hope Jack Smith brings everyone of these' seditionist in....every last one of them....

7. He was all excited about killing Democracy here.

He should be removed from office with the others involved, prisioned, and never even allowed to run for office again in any capacity.

8. What is really striking is that the Heritage Foundation (Koch POS) is setting up to

try to make this country into a fascist state in 2025....and my jerk fascist loving seditionists congressman is shown in the picture....

Heritage Foundation Makes Plans to Staff Next G.O.P. Administration

No matter the Republican, the effort has set a goal of up to 20,000 potential officials in a database akin to a right-wing LinkedIn.

9. It's disgusting. These fascist fux have been at it, and should

Be investigated for sedition. They are active domestic terrorists infiltrating our government to abolish it. When you are elected to office or other government jobs, you are required to give an oath to uphold the Constitution.

If these GOP scumbags are working to tear it down, that would be an enemy of the state, domestic or otherwise, Putin's puppets.

6. If more adult children with aging parents understood what no SS meant,

they'd insist on shoring it up.

Without Social Security and Medicare, my husband and I would have had to assume his parents' medical care after strokes and (in her case) Alzheimers.

That or make the unthinkable choice to refuse to pay for their healthcare, lodging, and other expenses in order to meet our own expenses.

It would wipe out generational wealth.
