Obama is Coming for Your Social Security
Via Americablog, Obama wants to cut your Social Security. And once he blows a hole in the budget with these tax cuts for the wealthy, that’s exactly what he’s gonna do:
INSKEEP: Won’t Republicans argue — and, in fact, won’t reality argue that any cuts will have to be even deeper because this package that you’re pushing for now will mean there’s even less government revenue?
OBAMA: Actually, I think that if you talk to economists, both conservative and liberal, what they’ll say is the problem is not next year. The problem is, how are we dealing with our medium-term debt and deficit, and how are we dealing with our long-term debt and deficit? And most of that has to do with entitlements, particularly Social Security and Medicaid.
This has been clear for a long time. Susie Madrak connects the dots with an assist from Americablog (links at Susie’s place, go visit!)
As soon as the tax cuts blow a hole in the budget, they’re going to come for your money. The Social Security Wealth Transfer — “From your pocket to mine, sucker.”)
