"The typical male worker, despite huge increases in productivity, made $783 less last year than he did 42 years ago."
"I do not think it is accurate to characterize the situation as stealing from retirees to pay benefits to people with disabilities."
"This means, if that cut were to go through, that the average benefit of approximately $13,980 a year for a disabled person would be cut by $2,600 to $11,324."
"So they would see a 20-percent or a 19-percent cut in their income."
