Thomas (R-CA) Disburbed That Women Collect More Social Security

[CindyDale]

Bill Thomas was on C-SPAN whining about Ida May Fuller who collected over $20,000 in benefits over her lifetime from 1940 to 1975 (she lived to be 100).

He was also disturbed that women live longer than men and collect more benefits. We've just got to do something about that.

Isn't it time someone did something about all the injustices against men?

1. Is this the new meme on Social Security?

Sounds like more of the GOP divide-and-conquer approach.

Besides, $20,000 over the span of 35 years? Anyone care to do the long division on that?

2. I wonder what his solution would be.

4. kill us during menopause--we're no use to tham after that, anyway.

3. He wants to do something about our living longer, or our

being allowed to keep eating for a few more years? What a dog in the manger. :eyes:

The good news is that with his shorter lifespan, he won't have to live with the indignation for TOO many more years!

5. Maybe he plans to legislate something like a "sutee"

Widows would throw themselves on a funeral pyre at the husbands' funerals to prevent them from outliving men and collecting more Social Security.

6. Fair's fair....I'm disturbed he's in Congress.

Very Disturbed.
