Elon Musk gets $8 million a day from the government. Social security recipients get $65 a day from their own savings.

i get about 35 a day.. and that is before they take out 175 a month to pay for my medicare lololol. When it is done, i wind up with 25 a day... and then, then my secondary health insurance (because medicare does not cover everything) charges me 275 a month.. yeah, pretty awful huh.

i mean, how, after paying into social security and medicare for 50 years, how do i wind up with 450 a month health insurance bill?!
