re: #629 reuven

But to deny a “benefit” to people who have been responsible enough to plan for an income during their retirement years is very disturbing.

Another canard I wish would die. A whole lot of very responsible people who did make those plans are now rowing without paddles thanks to the wall street wizards who created the melt-down that wiped out their retirement accounts and their home values. This BS meme about those irresponsible people who are now broke through no fault of their own really pisses me off.

BTW, I am not in favor of means testing so that is in no way part of my beef.
