If the Social Security and Medicare panic buttoners want to be useful...

...they should start making themselves heard about the Republican debt limit hostage taking. That could stop the checks COMPLETELY starting NEXT WEEK. You're not worried about that?

It's ironic. The "Obama and the Dems are going to sell us out" sky has never fallen, despite multitudinous , wrong, un-retracted, yet somehow evergreen OPs on the subject. Now the Republicans swoop in to stop checks entirely and it's crickets chirping from the SS/Medicare front guard.
