SS/medicare recipients take out more than they put in- and in that way it is an "entitlement program"...
Unless you have some special kinda of divorce that says he is no longer is their father, I would say it has as much to do with him as with you. Divorce doesn't relieve him of the responsibility. If that is not the case, maybe you should address that and quit attacking responsible seniors.
You constantly harp of SS/Medicare but somehow fail to see see that those on welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, etc, etc take out a far greater portion than they contribute. Most contribute to SS/Medicare with the hope we do get something back . Some get more, some don't. Some die and get nothing. Sure, we also hope that in times of need we may also get help. Very doubtful, many of us make that contribution expecting that it will become a way of life either for ourselves or anyone else. Do you really think that given a choice a person on SS disability would choose a few hundred dollars a month versus being pain free and able to do what they did before? Oh wait, the person that caused this was about your age, all should be "forgiven" .
Please, tell us again your plan for your advanced years without taking from SS or Medicare? Die at midnight at 61 years, 364 days?
