Reply #15: Take away middle class perks??

lol. This is a get the popcorn moment!

Means testing has always been hated just slightly less than venereal disease. We just elminated taxes on social security above the poverty line, because people hate it. Middle class America wants their social security, all of it.

Republicans are out of touch with the common needs of working people. Republicans always have been. It'll be easier to knock down means testing than privatization.

This is a game of chicken. Who is going to say raise the cap first. Democrats have got to make sure it's the Republicans who do it.
