Thank you

As someone that made very little in income, every cent was subject to SS tax, and most of my employers put their donations to my retirement in the damn stock market.

After decades, I finally learned enuf to switch out of the roller coaster market into money market and CDs.

I will be destitute in no time if that mthrfckr touches my EARNED RETIREMENT BENEFIT. I darn well paid in and expect to continue to get my benefit IN FULL. And I pay $185/month for Medicare plus copays depending on the care received.
