Wow, you are so smart! Too bad you can't figure out history, travel back to 1983, and review the last time the shit hit the fan. Benefits were redefined, schedules were redefined, some tax schedules were changed, and bang! Another 50 years of funded SS was saved.

Low and behold, now it is almost 2033, and we need to make another forecasted change, except now the Repubes have gleaned on to the new political movement that retirees and old folks just need to curl up and die.

Oh, I see. Ask a simple clarifying question, and Dave has a hissy fit. Cool.

Take a Dramamine, Mike. You're spinning again.

Come Mike, you know that you have an agenda that is quite transparent!
I have one too, wish to see Trump and the GOP suffer due to their inability to govern and expose the deep seeded hypocrisy; healthcare and taxes specifically.

How about a single payer full participation not-for-profit sustainable basic health care system? Folks can stack all the open market stuff on their care they want.

Right.... And United States citizens aren't smart enough to figure out the differences in spelling. 😏
