Every single time Alan Simpson opens his mouth about (gutting and privatizing) Social Security, it just becomes more outrageous to watch this nasty old senile goat and has now gotten to the point that makes me absolutely cringe inside to know that President Obama appointed this embarrassing excuse of a human being to the Cat Food Commission.
This latest diatribe against Social Security and AARP, included a nasty little jab and a very rude hand gesture by Simpson to our senior citizens in this nation, who built this country.
WASHINGTON -- Alan Simpson’s cold relationship with AARP is no secret, but the former Republican Senator from Wyoming took it to a new level Friday. At an event hosted by the Investment Company Institute, Simpson delighted the finance industry audience members by aiming a rude gesture at the leading lobby for senior citizens.
Financial and investment interests have long been supportive of Simpson’s broad critique of Social Security, since privatizing the old-age and disability support program would be a tremendous boon for Wall Street’s financial managers. ICI represents mutual funds and other money managers who control more than $13 trillion in assets.
"It was never intended as a retirement program. It was set up in ‘37 and ‘38 to take care of people who were in distress -- ditch diggers, wage earners -- it was to give them 43 percent of the replacement rate of their wages. The [life expectancy] was 63. That’s why they set retirement age at 65” for Social Security, he said.

Did you get that people?: set up for ditch diggers and wage earners. Simpson calls it a welfare program, and without any shame spits on the workers of this nation. Of course he never mentions the big fat pension he receives monthly from the same ditch diggers and filthy 'wage earners' of this nation which keeps his ass in clover.
You've got to read this entire article, to get the full arrogance, and gist of this out of control corporate pit bull from hell.
Here is a walk down memory lane for Worst Person in the World: Alan Simpson:
Too bad I could not find a video of Simpson giving his nasty little hand gesture to all the 'ditch diggers and wage earners and lazy leeches,' of this nation while he spoke at a totally high end 'investment' group, who are all slobbing all over themselves in order to do the one fucking thing that Alan Simpson really wants to do:
Privatize Social Security and never pay back the IOU of 2.5 trillion dollars that our government 'still,' owes, we the people: You know the filthy ditch diggers.
Fuck you Alan Simpson and fuck anyone else like you. You've lived off the tit (and still are with your fat fucking pension) of this government and it's people and no one is buying your bullshit. No one, but I sure as hell hope that President Obama ears are burning after this latest disgusting display by Simpson. There is nothing that this old rich bastard will not say or do, to destroy Social Security, and every single time he opens his mouth, it is yet another reason for early retirement, for people like him.
Thanks as always,
