Disaster

This many changes will equal a disaster. Plus the central premise of taking money from the already dwindling social security fund sounds selfish and depressing. I'd rather watch Jessica Lange in 'How to Beat the High Cost of Living.'

Do some research on WHY the fund is depleted. You might feel a bit better about these ladies having fun with some of the money. Also keep in mind our benevolent almighty imperialistic government will come after them with guns blazing and exact every last penny and MORE from them in the end.

this was a great movie!!! Jessica out shined everyone as usual.She definitely has a knack for comedy and I hope she does more of it in the future. If you've read Shirley's memoir, you'll know this film has been through a lot and the fact that it came together at all is a miracle. I thought it turned out great. It would have been better released on DVD. They cut Jessica's singing, and other scenes and they edited language etc. I am still hoping for a DVD release.

The only thing that is selfish is our government and what they do to us taxpayers. Id rather see these ladies have fun with the money than going into the governments piggy bank. It is after all just a movie. Take it for what it is.

It was a great mix of comedy and drama.

The only people who get $5,000,000 from social security are pharmaceutical companies. Social security and Medicare are not allowed to negotiate prices. Therefore they pay any outrageous price charged for medicine and equipment.

Those companies, some of which are total fakes, get billions. That is why social security and Medicare are going broke You can thank the slimy crooks in Congress, hedge funds and pharmaceutical companies for this.

I don't know everything. Neither does anyone else
