What's the Current GOP manufactured debt Crisis? Social Security Reform

Last edited Wed Jan 28, 2015, 12:59 PM - Edit history (2)

OK, so this is Post-Election material, not specific to campaign methods (or failures thereof), just looking at the immediate priorities since the GOP has taken control of both houses.

What are these "Immediate Priorities"? Those of us paying attention have seen legislative action proposed for, among other things, the TransCanadian pipeline (no surprise there) and Social Security Reform measures.

The pipeline seems to be getting enough coverage, generally speaking. But let's take a look at SSI, shall we?
