We would all be Hearing it 24/7 Now if a Republican had proposed this farce,Oh wait, George W Bush wanted to let the Younger people to put 2% of their money into their own account and I thought the world was going to end,now this marxist is going to cost the Social security System 250 billion dollars and he ios a Hero. Folks you get what you deserve and the American People elected this guy and are in for it, and the Morons dont know what is going to Hit them as soon as they reelect this scumbag
YES! Finally another person makes the connection. The same 2% Payroll Tax Cut exemption, money that is basically thrown away (or spend on lattes), is the very same 2% that President Bush was crucified for trying to make available for ‘private’ investment, for those who cared to.
THAT 2% was going to DESTROY Social Security, said the Dems, and put retirees in the street - but deliberately not collecting it, that’s ok -
WHY DON’T the Republicans in COngress or the Republican candidates mention this fact? Why won’t anyone?
Don’t forget the additional tax on mortgages and refis that is going to ‘replace’ this tax cut. The tax cut won’t help unemployed or retirees, but the tax added to morgages will impact them.
Great.
