How can you make that claim? Cain's website doesn't say that. A clear reading of that would say that Social Security would be treated as any other income.

I happen to have attended the Florida CPAC and spoke to a few of his staff when I was there a few weeks ago. They told me that there is every intent to exempt SS.
USED goods are also planned to be exempt from the 9% sales tax.
You have to remember one thing — 9-9-9 is a GENERAL BLUEPRINT which is NEGOTIABLE with Congress. The details have to be ironed out.
Nobody but nobody among the 8 candidates running have all details ironed out, certainly not Herman Cain.
You might say to yourself — why then can’t it be placed their website? That is a good suggestion. Maybe it will be updated as the plan continues to be ironed out. Suffice it to say that NOT EVERY INTENDED DETAIL is going to be on the site.
But to say that Cain is some sort of cold blooded bastard who is going to let seniors solely dependent on SS income to hang out to dry is to misread the man’s intentions.
