You paid for it, so entitled to it

I would like to confess that in spite of being a long time gun owner, I have been voting a straight Democratic ticket for years. I did also vote for Reardon. I will soon be 66, so I am applying for Social Security this year which puts me in the 47 percent of moochers, according to Romney-Ryan. When Ryan, Cantor and the rest of the congressional Republicans say they want to cut entitlements, it can only mean Social Security and Medicare. I have paid into Social security Since I was 12 years old, every year. I would also say that whenever the GOP wins statewide elections the first thing they do is get rid of every labor union they can and do what they can to abolish minimum wage laws. They are doing it in Alaska right now!
