Cutting Social Security is also known as killing retirees.
Take that boomers.... /s
In bird culture. This is seen as a dick move.
They staggered the reduction last time. This time it would really hurt Gen X forward.
We can’t allow this.
Agreed. Vote blue.
Maybe .... And Maybe they will pull a Spanish Inquisition.
I wouldn't expect them to do that, no.
Who would?
Nobody, that's who.
I won't lie; I upvoted (or whatever the lemmy version is) because I'm a sucker for any R&M reference.
If they aren't making Republicans richer, the redcoats don't care.
A neighbor of mine relies on social security and said he only gets $3000/year. He's a cancer survivor in poor health with crippling bipolar disorder and lives in a care home. The home provides food and shelter but not clothing or recreation, so the locals always help him out. He's only in his 60s. How is anyone supposed to survive like that? If they cut his pay any further he straight up won't be able to live.
Well you see, at this point since he is no longer able to be exploited for capital, he is no longer useful to the ruling class, and must be discarded. He is a burden to the system an no longer has value. - right wing politics.
My Mom will lose her home as well.
If that’s $3k/yr after paying a care home, that’s not so bad.
Social security is based on what you pay in: your top 35 years. If he truly only gets $3k/year, did he even work? Yes, you could argue there should be something need based

Lol you think they'll stop paying? If they cut the payroll tax it'll just get paid with debt....just like it is right now.
We need to get ss needs based.
Cutting payroll taxes is also known as cutting regressive taxation
