132. Always cuts for the those that need it but never a tax increase on those that
can afford it? Why is that? Why not lift the cap? Because more revenue would solve the problem but that isn't in the cards for those Republicans and a couple Democrats on the commission want to destroy it. Do you really believe Alan Simpson is a defender of SS? Or what about the other Republicans on the Commission? Alan "Social Security is a milk cow with 310 million tits" Simpson is the new defender of Social Security? :rofl:

If the debt/deficit is god damned important, then why did a tax cut just pass of $800 billion and a defense budget of $750 billion? Over $1.5 trillion dollars right there in spending. But all that is untouchable because they're tax cuts and the defense budget. If the debt was so fucking important, then why did we just take more revenue out of the budget?
