Social Security is funded until 2041, and that includes raises. What never gets mentioned is that by then, the first baby boomers will be in their late 90's. If they are alive. The youngest will be 77. Hilary Clinton has stated that there is no SS crisis. And a good book, Social Security, The Phoney Crisis substansiates that.

The Republicans have been creating the SS crisis for 50 years because they are now and always have been opposed to it. It is the only government program that benefits the average American, not the rich. And they hate it. We have been fed lying propaganda for all of our lives.

The book is written by Mark Weisbrot. The only crisis that exists, is that we have been lied to so long, we believe the lie. It is time to start getting the truth out, and Clinton is going to do that.

If this were a thread about Bush and his economic plan I would gladly discuss his crazy expenditures.

This is about Hillary and her expenditures and yet some how she believes there will be SSI.

What I meant is that you seemed worried about what Hillary had to say,but forgetting about what Bush has done

Maybe the two issues are mutually exclusive and both of them suck? :shrug

Either way Saguaro. Pretending that SSI is funded until 2041 is insane!

Hillary is a known liar, yes I know so is Bush but he is not running for President and can not run again. You can not change the past but you can damn sure protect the future.

BTW the debt still went up under Clinton just like it went up under nearly every president regardless of party affilation.
