Reply #80: That doesn't make SS responsible for the deficit

[sabrina 1]

It still makes the borrowers responsible. How the money is managed has little to do with the Creditors, the American People, and cutting their benefits or anything else that they try to make not look like benefits, will not help lower the debt or the deficit. As you said if anything, it will raise the deficit.

So then, the question remains, why is SS allowed as a topic of discussion by a Democratic administration in any debate about these issues, other than maybe, as something that needs to be protected?
