GOP Pushing Generational Warfare - Dividing Young And Old Over Social Security -

[Demo_Chris]

8. It's not a lie

Current recipients have already voted to reduce and delay the benefits their kids and grandkids will get. In any case, considering what today's seniors inherited and what they have done with it, young people have every right to be angry.

As for Social Security, it comes down to this: if chained CPI passes Social Security will be gone within twenty five years. That's the point of chained CPI, it makes the program worthless down the road. The Washington elite believe that today's seniors will willingly destroy social security for their kids and grandkids so long as their own social security remains intact. But I believe that once younger people understand what Chained CPI does there will be a massive push to pull the plug immediately. And why not? At that point there will be no reason to pay into the program.

Republicans will be quick to point that out and play on it.
