What if a politician actually told the truth and said SS needs to be fixed and cuts have to be made? We have to raise the age and lower the benefits as well as stop raiding it.
What if everything we know about politics is wrong and it isn’t the turd rail. When Romney was talking about cutting Medicare and SS he was winning, when he became a jellyfish he lost because nobody had a reason to vote for him.
Pray for America
None of the current $16 Trillion debt is because the SS Trust fund is insolvent — NONE.
The government spending politicians just want to make it more solvent in the future so that they will have more money from it to use for their government spending programs.
Also note that one of the biggest hits to Medicare in recent years came with the pharmaceutical coverage — a payoff to pharmaceutical companies that sent drug prices through the roof.

Funny you should mention that. Mitch McConnell just did exactly that while facing an onslaught from DNC Dave. the biased POS interviewer tried his best to get McConnel to admit he was willing to shut the govt. down but got absolutely nowhere with McConnell. Every time dnc dave tried it McConnell came back and said the problem is zero won't cut spending never mention anything at all about shutting the gov.t down. Finally our side is learning how to deal with the DBM biased SOBers. Many are now saying that Mitch McConnell is doing Dingy Harry's job since Dingy Harry doesn't have a clue at best. No wonder Boehner told Harry to go F... himself last week!!Not once but twice!!
