Perhaps Congress may do well to create some legislation that would require these so-called independent studies by scientists to disclose who is actually funding their work.

It gives me pause, and it should give all of our American people pause to think about what can happen with a U.S. Supreme Court that is improperly stacked with right-wing, bigoted justices.

I take issue with that.

Americans who depend on Social Security, and those who are working today and paying thousands of dollars a year into Social Security, they want, need, and deserve better.
