Issue Position: Fighting for Seniors, Social Security & Medicare

Issue Position

Social Security and Medicare are not voluntary programs. They are based on involuntary confiscation from every paycheck with the promise that people will receive benefits when they retire. The government does enough lying and stealing. It shouldn't play people for chumps by taking money from workers for 50 years and then fail to uphold its promise. These are earned benefits.

* We must repeal and replace Obamacare, which robbed $700 billion from Medicare.

* Robbing people of the benefits they have contributed is not a solution -- it's an escape.

* 20 percent of Medicare spending is waste, fraud and abuse. We must protect Medicare and prosecute fraud.

* We must grow the economy and ensure everyone is paying into the system.

As President, I will protect Social Security and Medicare. I will kill anything that poses a threat to the promises we have made to America's seniors.
