“Can you get it through your biased thick skulls that we are not saying get rid of Social Security!”
While we’re talking about biased thick skulls, maybe these facts- facts, not RW mythology- could be restated and, perhaps, understood.
1. SS is not going broke, is not bankrupt,will not even have to reduce benefits for upwards of 25 years EVEN IF WE DO NOTHING.
2. The only thing we have to do to insure its solvency far into the future is RAISE THE CAP on taxation from its current amount to what R/B suggested.
voila! No benefit cuts, no changing eligibility ages, no nothing. SS is now fine until our great grandchildren are collecting.
Feel those vibrations against your skull? That’s some facts knocking.
