Why shouldn't they have to invest in their own retirement, pay their own health care if they decide to retire early, then go on medicare and pay their own supplemental insurance like everyone else? What about a freeze on their raises?

Now here's another question. We have a decent medical coverage, but no dental. Lots of people don't have medical coverage. So then why do our taxes go toward programs to help other people get medical and dental coverage, when we lack coverage ourselves?

Not only do the people on top live off us, we are the ones who come to the aid of the people who are impoverished.
