Whether it’s a red state, blue state or purple state, all states will be affected if the current administration eliminates Social Security, which we earned through hard work, paying into it all our working lives.

What do people think will happen to American citizens whose only income depends on their monthly checks? We could lose our homes, everything we worked for, living on the streets, and yes, dying because we can’t afford food or get lifesaving medicine we desperately need to survive. Is this what we can expect? If there is fraud, then show me the facts. Not idiotic misinformation about dead people or non-citizens receiving Social Security checks.

I urge everyone to not stand by and let this happen. It will be a travesty beyond comprehension. People should call or write to all our elected officials and tell them “no.”
