To the editor,

This letter is to address an ad which was run in the Oct. 3rd. issue of the Times Gazette, page 12A.  That ad seems to imply that if you have social security or medicare, you should thank a democrat. What the democrats actually (gave) you was (another) pay-roll check deduction, allowing you to give yourself social security and medicare. If you find this hard to believe, just look at your next paycheck stub.

 

If you really want to (thank) someone for these benefits, just look in the mirror and give yourself a big pat on the back.

 Now, if you live to a "ripe old age" you may get your money back.

The next time a politician (gives) you something, hang onto your wallet or purse tightly and check your paycheck stub to see what that (gift) cost you, and just who you should thank.
