Wake up, drink some coffee, and kick start the brain.

THE SINGLE BIGGEST AND MOST RELIABLE VOTING BLOCK IN EVERY ELECTION ARE THE SENIORS. IF YOU TALK ABOUT CUTTING THEIR BENEFITS, IT IS KNOWN AS THE 3RD RAIL IN POLITICS. MAYBE YOU ARE TOO YOUNG TO KNOW THAT PHRASE.

So when the money eventually runs out...these seniors will just say “oh well, I am glad they didn’t try to fix it earlier. My 30% reduction is fine now because we kept those bastards from touching the third rail right up until the system broke.”

How will they vote when there isn’t the money to cover the obligations? Automatically, against all incumbents of both parties?

You can ignore the problem all you want, but the politicians better get serious about addressing it because it is a huge ticking time bomb.

I guess you are not a conservative.

Entitlement reform is meant to keep the programs solvent, not cut benefits for those getting them or soon to get them.

But you and your leftist Trump keep using Democrat talking points to attack the only true conservative in the race who has implemented conservative policies.

FYI - Lefty Trump had nice words about Rick Scott entering the race even though he talked about entitlement reform just last year.

Trump is hypocrite and keeps taking leftist positions on issues. He is another RINO.
