Leave Social Security & Medicare alone. Do NOT include them in the up coming Tax & Budget negotiations.

There is a very strong possibility that the upcoming negotiations to either allow all the Bush Tax Cuts end or change them to allow only those making $250,000 or more to end will include modifying Social Security & Medicare to get the Republicans on board. THIS MUST NOT HAPPEN! There is nothing wrong with Social Security nor Medicare. The Congress has continually borrowed from the Social Security Trust Fund and now does NOT want to pay it back. This is intolerable and must STOP. There needs to be a "Lock Box" on the Trust Fund and Congress has to meet it's obligation and pay it back. Therefore, leave Social Security & Medicare OFF the negotiation table!
