Will those of us collecting SS be impacted with this deal? SS was
mentioned that SS would be cut 2%. Does that affect us now or is that for future recipients? If so, I'm looking for a nice bridge. All I can hope for is Bernie Sanders and others to filibuster this catastrophe...
7. 2% will be cut from FICA taxes on the employee side therefore creating a larger SS Shortfall
This will affect me (I am a twenty something). These cuts will be extended indefinitely and this will be the perfect opening for the Republicans to successful de-fund Social Security leading to massive cuts across the board and the complete dismantling of the program. Some form of it may exist as a welfare program but that is all.
