Make decisions fair to seniors

Prior to the national debt agreements, there was talk of lost Social Security payments. That would mean that if the government doesn’t pay out, then our workforce would not be obligated to pay in. Just think of how the extra paycheck money could bolster the economy!

And then, there is the issue of our constitutional right to bear arms for protection against tyranny both foreign and domestic. Just envision 1 million armed seniors ransacking Fort Knox while the National Guard cheered them on by waving AARP flags and pictures of their grandparents. Now, that would be a sight to behold.
