Social Security Quotes (page 8)

As a matter of fact, if you do not take into account, as Congressman Ross just stated, the Social Security surplus, our fiscal deficit, ladies and gentlemen, is over $700 billion today. Jim Costa
It's critical - that the people that are benefiting today from Medicare and Social Security that they not see benefit reductions. It's awfully hard to tell someone who might be 82, that they've gotta go back to work, because their benefits are gonna be chopped. That's not gonna happen. Fred Upton
The President's budget pays for only six months of the war in Iraq and completely overlooks the transition costs of Social Security reform. The Administration always lied about the cost of the Medicare drug bill. Jim Cooper
Scott Cook quote: "Today more people believe in UFOs than believe that Social..."
Today more people believe in UFOs than believe that Social Security will take care of their retirement. Scott Cook
Joe Heck quote: "We know that Medicare is set to go bankrupt in 2024 with no..."
We know that Medicare is set to go bankrupt in 2024 with no action, and social security is set to be insolvent by 2037. Joe Heck
The full retirement age is 67 and the lifespan is 80, so when they first conceived Social Security, they didn't think they were going to be paying benefits for 13-15 years. That's one of the reasons why this pyramid scheme isn't working. Joe Heck
Bill Weld quote: "I don't understand the Democrats' approach to Social Security..."
I don't understand the Democrats' approach to Social Security in this country, and I'm not alone. Bill Weld
Speaking of tax fairness, it was Senator Kerry who voted to increase the income tax on senior citizens on Social Security, earning as little as $32,000 a year. Bill Weld
Last night, I had a telephone townhall for my constituents back in Vermont, and we had 11,500 people on it. And I had people on Social Security saying if getting fewer benefits will help us on the debt, they're for it. And I had a farmer saying that he's had subsidies for 35 years but we can't afford them anymore. Peter Welch
We want to make sure that Social Security is fixed for those people who have had that promise and there's something in the future for our younger workers. And we're not about to do a welfare program. Dennis Hastert
I'm the guy that has written at great length about exactly how we should profoundly reform Social Security. If I were afraid of going after entitlements, I wouldn't have done that, I wouldn't have put Medicaid reform in this budget, I wouldn't have called for the reductions in spending, which people will scream about, but I think are necessary. Pat Toomey
We will keep the promise of Social Security by taking the responsible steps to strengthen it - not by turning it over to Wall Street. Barack Obama
Diane Watson quote: "Among seniors, Social Security is the sole source of income..."
Among seniors, Social Security is the sole source of income for 26 percent of nonmarried women. Diane Watson
We must work together to save and strengthen Social Security not just for my father's generation but also for my daughters' generation. John Thune
We must ensure that today's seniors' benefits are rock solid and find a solution that fixes Social Security for the next generation that is just entering the workforce. John Thune
