What a lie that Social Security is in trouble. This program has had and will have a surplus from 2003 to 2016. During this time Congress has borrowed or spent well over 3 trillion of this surplus to pay for two wars and give wealthy citizens big tax brakes. The Congress was to pay back that money so the system so it can stay solvent for another 40-45 yrs. In order to do this Congress must let the tax cuts expire on the wealthy and cut Defense spending. The dirty little truth is they would rather then lie to people and tell them that cuts must be made in Social Security then do what is right. Today every Republican running for President is asking to increase the retirement age. It's easier to fool the American public with scary stories about the debt then just pay the money they took back. They would rather stiff you ,the public, then tax the wealthy or cut Defense projects we really don't need. Wake up America,you are being sold a bill of goods. The truth is that in another 30-40 years the Baby Boomers will have moved through the system and we won't need as much money to pay for benifits. THEY JUST DONOT WANT TO PAY OFF THEIR DEBT TO THE S.S.TRUST FUND. That's all this whole mess is about. Ignore facts and believe your party because you think they are pro life. That's another lie that I will explore later.
