General Discussion

Of course, ANY cuts at all for the many living on Social Security WILL reduce their already minimal standard of living.
I call THAT "Gutting".

A Democrat would be fighting to INCREASE Social Security benefits in these times of escalating prices,
at least the Democrats I remember from the 50s, 60s, and 70s would be doing that.
THAT is WHY I decided to join the Democratic Party.


[font size=1]I supported you, won’t you support me. Support Social Security with NO CUTS and support Medicare with NO CUTS. Cut MILITARY and Defense spending instead. Build more roads, bridges, schools, etc



Dear President Obama:

I am deeply disillusioned and angered but what feels like, no, not feels like, IS, a betrayal of the promise you made to protect social security. Social security benefits are for many seniors a lifeline that makes the difference between living out ones years with dignity, or in fear and poverty. After all the promises you made to us in your campaign, how dare you change your tune now for political reasons and expediency.[/font]
