Get to the bottom of all the dirty tricks used to take the Social Security trust away from Americans that funded it.

Created by P.H. on January 21, 2016

Let’s make it clear, the biggest problem with the Budget Deal is that Congressional leadership continues to use middle-class benefits as hostages to try and force concessions on legislation that has nothing to do with Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. With Rep. Paul Ryan, now in charge (and his views on slashing Social Security and Medicare ) we’ll likely face this battle again as soon as next month in the Transportation bill debate as conservatives hope to use benefit cuts to pay for highways. Social Security is only for retirees. Unfortunately, the new bill also:
• Provides NO financial relief to seniors who will receive no cost of living adjustment in 2016.
• Extends the Medicare provider reimbursement sequester and uses the savings to pay for unrelated programs. THIS IS A CRIME!
