This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode the deficit.

3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.

Don't let them get away with it.

Republicans have been out to gut Social Security for years because it’s one of the most popular and successful programs ever created.  

Those who claim to care about the debt while pushing for trillions in tax cuts for the rich and corporations don't really care about the debt.
