Social Security Benefits Set To Be Expanded for Millions

[CousinIT]

4. This will shorten the years before Soc Security is unable to pay full benefits.

I support it, but it's important to note that SHitler's mass deportations, removing taxes on Social Security (which go right back into the Trust Fund), and elimination of the WEP all take more money out of the Trust Fund and move up the date on which Soc Security will be unable to pay full benefits - without some sort of machination such as raising the retirement age for younger workers, decreasing COLA amounts, or lifting the $170k cap above which no FICA tax is paid, or increasing the FICA tax.

The latter two options will be vehemently and viciously fought by greedy-ass billionaires who already hate paying the FICA taxes they pay now -- which is why they and the politicians they own (Mike Lee, for instance) LIE to the American public about social security to get them to agree to CUTS (raising the retirement age is a CUT) rather than making the fucking billionaires pay their fair share.

They love to say Social Security is going "broke" (it is NOT), and they love to call it a "Ponzi scheme" and a dirty deal that can't keep its promise to America's retirees. It is none of that.

This Social Security myth buster is a vital link to keep handy: https://www.ncpssm.org/documents/2024-opeds-and-letters/7-myths-that-undermine-social-security/. FDR's grandson James Roosevelt, is a founder of NCPSSM and is working to preserve his grandfather's legacy -- and OUR retirement money that we EARNED (and the billionaires want to steal for their tax cuts).

If nothing is done, then around 2030 or so, people's Social Security payments will be 25 - 30% smaller. Most retirees can't afford such a cut.

And the fascist oligarch billionaire robber barons CAN'T WAIT to raid the Social Security Trust Fund (and the US Treasury) to pay for their fucking tax cuts, after which their politician puppets will SCREAM: "OUR DEFICIT IS TOO BIG, WE HAVE TO CUT ENTITLEMENTS!" -- and there goes our retirement money.

I never hear any Democratic politicians addressing ANY of the misinformation out there being peddled by Musk, Trump, Mike Lee, or the other rat bastards who want to steal OUR money. They need to get on this.

NOW.
