Senator Finstein wants to cut Social Security and Medicare, please tell her not to!

I'm a stern advocate of common sense politics and in the United States it seems like politicans are taking the exact opposite approach.

There is a strong movement in Washington, D.C. demanding big cuts to Social Security and Medicare benefits, pretty much the only two social welfare programs put in place in the U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told Congress on Thursday that those "entitlement" programs should be slashed to bring the budget under control, instead of raising taxes on the wealthy who have benefited from his bailouts.
Now, in the midst of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, Senator Dianne Feinstein is preparing to help Bernanke achieve his goal.

Even though many feel like there is absolutely nothing they can do to persuade policy makers please please please sign this petition, its the least you can do as a responsible citizen.

Click here to sign it and show Diane Finstein that we as citizens will not tolerate these cuts. Making cuts like this will only hurt the nation as a whole, not help it.
