The weak economy is DUE TO the increase in the safety net. How could the socialists say the government “safety net” is fraying when government is now taking in 24% of GDP, more than any time in the past? Have these jokers seen the number of people on food stamps lately? I loved the way they mention it without any evidence whatsoever.
“Poverty among people 65 and older will remain at historically low levels, buoyed by Social Security cash payments.”
Odd that. Apparently the young folks are getting screwed.
