1. Brain Fart.

Lets talk about double dipping.

2. What?

That can't be right.






What?

5. It is exactly the platform he is running on. The GOP is running on those ideas too.

Look how the GOP likes what he is saying. Cut Social Security Yay! Cut Medicare Yay! The GOP is against Social Security expansion.

3. he is not talking to voters

Look at what his wife does. He has no chance in any future elections so he is using the media attention right now to talk to his future employers on Wallstreet. I hope this gives some in the GOP cause to step back and look at how they used to love this bully but now the real person comes out. Its like the GOP has to feel a connection, a common bond with those they follow and right now they don't have anyone because it is obvious who is really frosting Christies croissant.

4. He's telling old people they live too long and are unaffordable

He's a straight talkin' political genius.

6. Work until you're 69 no medicare until 67.

Fuck him.

[Hoppy]

7. You forgot the part about how he is gonna fuck Medicaid also.

[world wide wally]

8. Amazingly, some people will think this is a great idea and go out and vote for this dip shit

[packman]

9. Damn you Christie

Get off my lawn!

10. You jack ass it isn't your money to cut!!

What a dumb fuck!!!

[SummerSnow]

11. Let the GOP have their way the retirement age will be 80

[hack89]

12. So he wants to means test Social Security for people making more than $200K a year in retirement?

he certainly is not talking about me. LoL

[angrychair]

13. I could write a 200 page book on this

And 199 pages would be filled with expletives directed at Christie and the rest of those gOP, christian taliban shit stains. The audacity of this chamber pot, who will never need SSI, to suggest cuts and increasing retirement age to 69, confirms the best part of him dripped out of his mother's ass.
When the best case scenario for life span in the United States is 76 for white males and 71 for black males and 81 for white females and 78 for black females. so, my case, I will get to work and pay into the system for 55 years to draw from it for 6, best case scenario. Which speaks nothing to what my health and overall quality of life would be. It is very likely that a majority of my "retirement" could be spent gumming apple sauce and shitting in a diaper.
At the end of the day, if my options are to work till I die (thanks gOP) or drop out of the system then I've got a decision to make. Fuck you all you right wing butt-plugs.
