The proposed budget would make cuts to Social Security by raising the retirement age, though it does not specifically say what that new retirement age would be. Benefits would also be reduced for those who earned a “higher salary” before retirement, but again, the budget does not specify what that threshold would be. The budget also claims that there would only be “modest adjustments” to Social Security as it operates now, but does not outline exactly what that means. “Perhaps most insultingly, given the Republicans’ claim to be the party of ‘family values,’ this budget would eliminate Social Security spousal benefits, as well as children’s benefits, for middle class families.” https://coppercourier.com/2024/03/22/80-of-house-republicans-support-plan-to-cut-social-security-ban-abortion-and-restrict-ivf/ Also we can solve like 70% of the social security debt problem by removing the income cap.

This post is going to upset Frankish something fierce as the Copper Courier, part of Courier Newsroom, can in no way be considered part of the reliable mainstream media. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courier_Newsroom Courier Newsroom is a digital media company that operates news outlets and sponsors political content intended to support Democratic candidates.[1][a][3][4][5] The goal of Courier Newsroom publications, according to an internal memo obtained by Vice News, "is to create shareable viral pseudo 'news content' to boost its preferred candidates."[1]Courier's founder is Tara McGowan, who used to work for the Obama campaign and for the SuperPAC Priorities USA Action.[6][7] Courier is run primarily by former Democratic operatives. It has received funding from Planned Parenthood to cover abortion related issues.[8] NewsGuard, which rates the reliability of news sources, has warned that "Courier's undisclosed funders and glowing coverage of Democratic candidates should raise questions about its reliability."[8] Otherwise, nice find by you. I know, Wikipedia… https://www.salon.com/2020/02/23/if-democrats-fight-right-wing-fake-news-fire-with-fire-we-all-lose/ Another affiliate of Acronym, Courier Newsroom, has set up what appear to be local news sites but are actually propaganda efforts aimed at creating content to be shared on social media to boost moderate Democrats.
