Under Obozo, SS payments have increased just a little over 1% ... At what point does the Left realize that the productive members of society won’t stand for this?

Stand for what? Increasing SS payments without a corresponding increase in revenue?

That's not what I'm suggesting. I'm suggesting cutting welfare payments by at least 30%. Indeed, I'd prefer the Workfare system where anyone receiving public assistance and who can fog a mirror, shows up at 7AM to clean toilets, scrub floors, or any other work the public sector deems necessary.
