I Am Retired

Next month I receive my first Social Security check. I cried, for real, when I heard what amount I would get after all my life working!!!! I was the working poor. Government welfare serves folks better than someone who worked minimum wages. How can anyone save money when they live from paycheck to paycheck.

It’s very sad when politicians pay themselves huge pensions in retirement. It’s the same world over the working person never gets far.

@amvanquish but WE voted the fu$$kers in! There is a change in the air. It's not Trump, it is people getting teed-off at how they are controlling/doing to us. But ...sigh... nothing new, the government are mobsters! Always have been.
