Government needs that tax money to transport in tens of thousands of well dressed Syrian "refugee" terrorists, all while aiding and abetting tens of millions of illegal aliens.
I can’t believe there will be no increase in SSAN this year. The measly increase barely covered the accompanying increase in Medicare as it was. So, in effect, everyone on SSAN will get a DECREASE this year when Medicare gets increased. How they can justify no increase, when food costs have increased by about three times what used to be the normal...then add other skyrocketing increases, like electricity, rent, etc. I think avoiding a SSAN increase was factored in as a plus factor when TPTB finagled oil prices lower to bring down Russia’s economy. And, of course, Putin is one upping and outsmarting Obummer by helping Syria so he can get in on controlling the price of oil in the middle east...Saudis must be sweating blood.
