I am neither a progressive or a conservative. Rather I am a pragmatist and a realist and prefer to come to my own conclusion rather than a collectives. Social Security costs about a trillion dollars a year. Actions speak louder than words. In his first major action did he put money into supporting SS. He took a trillion dollars from future tax income and gave it to the top 1%. If SS was a large part of my income I would begin to worry he cares about seniors about as much as he cares about the women he groped.
