In reply to the discussion: Social Security's Death Warrant Was Just Signed -- Are You Ready? [View all]Abstractartist
(456 posts)26. Anyone
Anyone who screws with social security will sign his/ her political and possible personal death warranty. Screwing with SS has been a no no in congress, and will be protected. These lifelong criminals uggg sorry, politicians are really deep down scared shitless over what the fringe right and left would do if their grandparents, parents, or their own SS gets cut or pushed into a deep ditch. They see how much support this young kid who is accused of killing the United Healthcare CEO is getting, and they know if their name is connected to cutting Social Security, they could be in the same situation.

Let's just establish as an absolute fact that Social Security is non-negotiable.
