Tell Barack Obama, your US Senators, and your US Representative to vote against any deal that includes cuts to social security because no deal is better than a bad deal.
Why is this important?
Barack Obama is willing to cut social security by using a chained CPI which would lower cost of living adjustments for seniors, even though seniors who have the highest cost of living increases since their major expenses are high drug prices for illnesses that they have. If no deal is made, all Bush era tax cuts expire, and all tax rate go back to what they were during the Clinton era. The payroll tax holiday would expire, and automatic cuts to the pentagon's budget would go into effect. None of these things would be bad. Besides, social security has nothing to do with the deficit.
