FDR signs the Social Security Act in 1935
So this year I was required by law to register for medicare or face penalties imposed by the social security administration for failure to comply.Though I was none too happy about it at the time, I must say that the process wasn't all that bad and my final interview by telephone to the office in Chicago went without a hitch as I answered each and every question about my work history in turn to the satisfaction of the nice lady doing the interview.

Little did they know that the population would swell under the influences of modern medical care and that invasion by foreign nationals seeking just such entitlement to the point that the system is now borderline insolvent and relies on resuscitation in the form of government infusions of fundage as though the Republic were a fountain of cash for the invaders as well as the long lived citizenry.
WHILE I am certainly unopposed to these benefits I feel I "may" have somewhat of a stipend based on the shoring up of the system by various Federal administrations.
It's just a shame that I hate my job so much that I can't stand the thought of staying there a moment longer than ABSOLUTELY necessary whereas I used to love my job dearly.
These are the consequences of placing people in charge who don't have a clue.
