What a line of hokum.

The way that you fix the paid insurance plan called Social Security is to raise the cap. No ifs ands or buts!
If we raise the cap to 250,000, up from the current 110,000, the fund would be viable for more than 100 years.

And they are not entitlements, they are paid for benefits, that never were to be part of the general budget.
Social Security should not be touched by any budget other than its own.

The entitlements that MUST be cut, are the entitlements that oil companies, defense contractors, and privately run prisons get.
