It is gambling where the house always wins. Can I opt out? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 86493490 Amish did, if true Oh it's totally true, but they can only opt out while employed at other Amish businesses. My religious exemption has a snowball's chance in hell unless I join an Amish church, which isn't exactly possible for an English person. |

NOBODY can live welfare free after 65! We republicans must let the democrats squander our tax revenue and still demand a check every month! What am I thinking? How do I feel? What am I doing? |

And so it came to pass that in 1965, the Medicare bill was passed by Congress. As Wayne Fisher writes in The Amish in Court, "Tucked into the 138 page bill was a clause exempting the Old Order Amish, and any other religious sect who conscientiously objected to insurance, from paying Social Security payments, providing that sect had been in existence since December 31, 1950. After Senate approval in July, the signing of the bill by President Lyndon B. Johnson on August 13, 1965, made it official and canceled tax accounts of some 15,000 Amish people amounting to nearly $250,000."

We republicans must let the democrats squander our tax revenue and still demand a check every month! They take care of their own and have large family support structures all within close proximity. Get sick? Family takes care of you. Too old to work? Same thing. Young, fit and healthy? You work in ways that support yourself to the benefit of your family and community. Are you a deadbeat lazy ass and obnoxious jerk? They will try to help you become a better person and failing that you will be shunned by all and probably have to move along to live among "The English" and they call the rest of us where you will probably fit right in. |
