10. So true

You just read my mind. Was just going to post the same creepy. All week I have been watching shows saying in the same segment , that people who get layed off after 55 the chances of finding another job are slim, than they go into "entitlement cuts and raising the retirement age. Are you kidding me. People cannot get work at 55, so let's up the retirement age. I know republicans are in some alternate universe, but this takes the cake . They have to deal with the world we have now. Manufacturing jobs have been shipped out, the internet is killing a lot , greed etc. we need to deal with the economy in this country in the 21 century. This is our reality, they need to make serious changes to our system. Things have changed we have to adapt to the times. They don't want to create jobs, plus they want to cut off any benefits to those who don't have one. They are making laws from the 70's but we are here.
