Wow, excellent point! I think SS, which we were forced to contribute to, should total each individual’s yearly contributions, the interest on those monies over time and divide it by the remaining years of life expectancy and there is your monthly payment. Likewise, we should not be forced to pay for Medicare. How many years of insurance premiums have been paid with little use by healthy people? When you see what EBT foods can be purchased, therein lies the problem. All edibles should not be allowed: pop, energy drinks, frozen prepared foods, canned pastas, candy, chips, pretzels, snacks, anything containing bad seed oils, fried foods, margarine, lunch meats, breads and pastries with corn syrup, fructose, or other sugar content, cereals with the same, any GMO produced foods. Clean up the diet, and you will reduce weight and clean up the sick.
