(32,139 posts)This is not the government's money to steal. It belongs to the people who paid into the insurance program.
And Bullshit to the idea that we'll all be better off. By putting these cuts on the table and repeating Republican lies linking SS to the deficit and endorsing economy-starving deficit *and* SS cuts, President Obama has viciously undermined the message, identity, and credibility of the Democratic party.
This garbage about austerity used to be considered just *Republican* talking points. Obama had from Day One of this Presidency to lead and correct these vicious economic lies that have led to the evisceration of the middle class and the widespread pain we see today. Instead, he has entrenched them and turned them into a *bipartisan* narrative that is destroying this country.
