(62,325 posts)the Chained CPI, 'a sneaky way to cut benefits', is because of all the Progressive Organizations along with AARP which has a huge membership, taking the trouble to make sure people understand what it means.
Four years ago we were all willing to wait when we saw things that made us uneasy, but not any more. The coalition of organizations that formed before the election, stated that while they would vote for Dems, they no longer trust either party to look out for the interests of the American people, especially the most vulnerable of them.
I know I receive tons of emails each day from all these organizations which I signed up for since the coalition formed and they are doing a tremendous job of educating the people.
We have more means today of getting the word out than when we had to depend on the MSM. The Social Media has also been doing a great job of spreading the information to millions of people.
