for starters, the feds need to redeem their IOUs that they deposited in the Trust Fund during prior “raids” for cash — to the tune of $2.67 trillion.

That was meant to be sarcasm, right?

And the new thing is letting people pay less payroll tax (SS tax). Obama is proposing not collecting 6.2% in this new bill....

Can somebody explain to me why (young) prisoners get SS checks in Jail, and Illegals get them, many even mailed to them in Mexico? Doesn’t Obumo have something like 17 Social Security numbers? Does that mean he and Moochelle will get 17 checks per month? (Do we know how many SS numbers Ms. Hussein has?)
