What Democrats don't seem to understand is that the type of SS the President proposes is voluntary. That is to say, one can invest if they want to.
Oh, they understand it all right! They are just scared spitless that the President is going to have another roaring success without their help, they just can't shut up!
They understand. they just do not want to give the president credit for a successful policy, nor do they want the voters becoming more independent. Once that occurs their jig is up.
