    Leave my social security alone!

    By Logan248  |  Posted May 25, 2012  |  Saint Joseph, Michigan
     
    So, I had the audacity to come out of retirement and go back to work full time. Is that an evil thing? You would sure think so with how the government wants to treat me. I chose to retire at 62 and therefore am told that if I make more than 14K I will lose a portion of my social security. What sense does that make? I now pay back into social security instead of just taking from it. I now pay federal and state taxes of which I did not as a retiree. I now have health and death insurance so the government does not have to pay for that. I now pay into medicaid again and still do not use it.
    I guess if you want to not be a liability to tax payers you must be punished.
