He allowed illegals to work here which means millions of dollars sspayments not being paid by the workers and the employer.

Now we get no cost of living increase, yet all our other expenses are going up? What can we do to change this?

I am FORCED by "economics" to work at 71 because my CURRENT SS + EMPLOYER RETIREMENT IS NOT ENOUGH TO LIVE ON. THAT'S AMERICA.....turn you into a SLAVE and ROB the crap out of you when you are older. E.g. National Fuel Gas in Buffalo NY has been PRICE-GOUGING homeowners for YEARS and the "politicians" LOOK THE OTHER WAY. My current "bill" was at a RATE 600% over the current wholesale market price of natural gas. I guess that's their "answer" to the "downturn"! My "City of Buffalo" WATER BILL was $179.00 for the last THREE MONTHS because she has a SMALL garden in the back yard (about 10' X 7') and we live on Lake Erie with the water delivery system PAID FOR by my ancestors YEARS AGO. Then there is my daughters "student loan" for something that is a HUMAN RIGHT and should NOT COST HER OR ME A DIME. I could go on for PAGES......why bother. "America" is GONE.

He speaks out of both sides of his mouth when he has to. He also lies constantly. He is for a one payer health system then he is not. He is the most disgusting president I have ever seen. A thousand times worse than Jimmy Carter, and Woodrew Wilson combined. A communist, socialist combined. Just disgusting. Get as far away from him as possible and I may support you, but not now.
