The Republicans want to kill Social Security and Medicare and turn them into voucher systems.
I strongly agree with that and yet, here we are where repealing the ACA without a replacement as the Republicans have already begun to do, would cost roughly $350 billion through 2027.
Social Security has been there for Americans for 77 years. I hope we can continue to work to make it strong for another 77 years.
It gave every shyster and promoter a loophole. . . . We now have to keep rewriting the laws like the tax code.
