I'll make my future with my own money

Posted September 12, 2009 11:00 pm

What a great idea! Conservative patriots should drop their tea bags and put their money where their mouths are! Seniors and veterans should cancel their Medicare coverage/VA benefits. Let's not stop there, however. How about canceling Social Security and unemployment benefits, too? I say, let's do it! Only one condition, however -

Before this Conservative Patriot puts down his tea bag and cancels those plans, I will demand a full and complete refund of every penny I've paid into them since day one. If and when that ever happens, I'll drop 'em all in a New York minute. I have every confidence I can take care of myself without some bureaucrat in Washington leading me by one hand while simultaneously reaching into my wallet with the other.
