Steve Deace’s only credential is betraying an old friend. Doesn't say much for his reliability.

Where does Cruz differ?

“On The Issues” list Sen. Cruz position on Social Security;

Q: How would you protect Social Security for today’s seniors and strengthen it for future generations?

A: On Social Security, I am campaigning on a series of very specific reforms. For seniors receiving Social Security or near Social Security, there should be no changes in benefits whatsoever. For younger workers, we need to do three fundamental reforms.

1. Gradually increase the retirement age.

2.Social Security benefits right now grow about 1% greater than inflation; we should have those benefits grow at the rate of inflation, not 1% more.

3. Third change that I think is absolutely critical is to allow taxpayers to have a portion of the Social Security funds go to a personal account that they own and control.

BTW...I haven’t decided who I will be voting for.
I’m waiting for the debates.
