Just retired full time and received my first government payment  last month. Finding retirement boring during a pandemic....only so many fish to catch before it becomes a bit monotonous. Couple of good articles here

Let's be clear. Trump has no plan for replacing Social Security, only for defunding Social Security. And he has no plan for replacing ACA (so-called Obamacare), only eliminating it. And yet seniors still vote for this guy? Really?

I receive SS. I paid my taxes for 40 years. Am I *entitled* to my SS income. Yer Dam Right!
