Wall street will steal our Social Security
We know they want it. We also know they'd do it in a heartbeat, without remorse. They'll accomplish this simply because they want it. It's been decades in the preparation, culminating in the Citizens United decision to place corporations above god. Recently, the upper percentile stole everyones 401K, their right to affordable health care, their jobs, and their homes. THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO STEAL! Except Social Security.

Who's going to stop this theft? Sharron Angle, Joe Miller, Meg Whitman? These are the new age vampires coming in for the final kill.

America will fight this with all it has, shaking it's fist at the television screen.

1. You are wrong about this old Texan
I won't be shaking my fist at the TV.

And I know a lot of other people like me.

This one is a peace breaker.

3. Hmmm, I thought the Dancing Supremes had ruled that corporations were gods.
Now, you say they are above god. I never knew the supremes had promoted corporations so high. I wonder what it costs to buy a Justice on the Supremes?

6. It's really expensive
unless you're so rich that c-notes clean the arse. You know, wall street CEO's. BTW, buying a justice is known as an investment.
