Diogenes

Nemo me impune lacessit
More than 67 million Americans collect Social Security benefits, including roughly 54 million retired workers.

Millions more expect — or at least hope — the program will be there when they grow old.

Most retirees depend heavily on Social Security for their income; between 10 million and 16 million older Americans would be in poverty without it, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.

The program disproportionately helps lower-income Americans, women and people of color.

And here’s the scandal: If implemented, Trump’s ridiculous economic proposals could bankrupt this vital, popular program within six years.



Fortunately, he's going to lose.

We've got this!
 
I will not need Social Security, but it makes me feel far more secure to know that it is there if I ever do need it. That is priceless to me.
