My fiscal cliff email to White House and my Congressmen

Please take the social safety net programs off the table. Real money can be found by cutting corporate welfare. Medicare could be made whole by allowing people to buy into the plan when they are young and healthy. Social security could be saved by removing the cap so that everyone continues paying into the fund on all earnings, not just the first $108k. These are common sense proposals that will not hurt the most vulnerable among us.
Thank you,
