Remember one thing though - Medicare and Social Security is currently funded by taxes and debt. There is no magic bank of money in a lock box that was never touched. It SHOULD have been that way, but it isn't.

If Sequestration goes through and the tax cuts expire in the "fiscal cliff" that everyone keeps talking about, then your SS and Medicare is in great jeopardy. That's just the way it is.

And THAT is what Obama must soon face.

If Repugs delete SS and Medicare “entitlements” w/o cutting education, welfare, EBT’s, EPA, DHS, etc., they won’t have a party left.

It’s a plan to gouge and harm whites - Repug voters - and transfer their benefits to the hipsters and minorities for entitlements for them. It will be spent on Obamacare.

In other words, the overspending won’t stop because entitlements will be expanded for Dem voters.

It’s a screw job on older whites who don’t vote for Dems but do for Republicans.

Fixed it for you
