I have worked in your defense industries.
I have worked in your computer companies and your cleanrooms.
And I have worked behind the counter in your retail stores even during Covid!
None of those companies ever offered me a pension.
And now you want to take away the one thing I live on, Social Security, even though it's not enough and I have to come up with an extra $200-$500 a month from my life-savings to support myself?
You think I'm angry while you call yourselves 'representatives'?
You'd be damn right!
