Don't believe it. It is another one of their sick ploys to justify cutting entitlement programs.

Remember we have a trillion dollar revenue that is not being used now because it is going back into the pockets of the filthy rich. I don't know how to start a movement demanding that their taxes pay part of our debt but I hope someone does.

It is shameful that the government is trying to take that money from the neediest of our American people.

2. That's not true.
The country wasn't broken until the Republicans took over 10 years ago and broke it.

HUGE difference. They deliberately broke it just so that they can bitch about it. The sad thing is that they've been telling everyone that that's EXACTLY what they were going to do since Reagan.
