Well at least the first sentence isn’t biased :)

That won’t happen on Trump’s watch. Is Rubio trying to torpedo this before conference, or provide Dem talking points?

Cut social security, even indirectly, and die in 2018.

Florida Senator Marco Rubio admits that the Republican tax cut plan to aid corporations and the wealthy will require cuts to Social Security and Medicare to pay for it.

No bias there /s

Of course, nothing else in this bloated government could be cut.

while reducing spending

Hey Anchor Baby Rubio, put the Pipe down, CONgress will NEVER reduce spending. You are a classic example why we need Mandatory Drug and Alcohol testing in CONgress Daily.

How about cutting all the illegals on SS?

And then cutting all the fakers on SS disability?

“Republicans Will Cut Social Security And Medicare After Tax Plan Passes, Says Marco Rubio”

Over Trump’s dead body.

Its always got to be SS and medicare. Never welfare or foreign “aid”. Enough with the scare tactics. We pay directly into SS and medicare as an investment (sort of) whereas the other programs are simply gifts to less productive voters.

One of the things Rubio talked about was raising the retirement agent for Social Security which has been discussed before.

9 million on SS disability. 3% of US population. That’s going to be a target.

We are 20 TRILLION in debt. 220 TRILLION if you want to consider future SS and Medicare/Medicaid. Civilizations don't last forever and this one is staring at a crash. So...

Adjustments to entitlements are essential, granted, but I hope that's not where they start. It's like closing national parks during a government shutdown...first targeting services that affect citizens.

How about government waste, firing employees, selling government properties, eliminating entire departments, unleashing energy economy, ash-canning baseline budgeting...for top-of-mind starters.

I thank God we don't have kids who will have to deal with this. It won't be pretty.

They try this and they wont ever be in charge of the CONgress ever again.

Social Security is backwards. I took early retirement. And was limited to how much I could make outside of the system. 14,500 I think was the number. IF I reach full retirement-66, I can make all I want.
As if I will be able to work that much by then. It should be the other way around. At early retirement, you should be able to make, say up to, 40 or 50 grand. Then that falls off to the present 16920, which is the max now, when you reach full retirement age. Those people, like myself will be adding into the system while collecting it.
