DONT FORGET, as the right wing neoliberals lie about Social Security "solvency"... so... they can privatize it and parasite off the elderly. There is no solvency issue at all, we could double SS payments & end FICA tax today if we wanted to!

Canadian prime minister & cohort are looting Canada, with smiley glad hands & cheers to distract long enough to privatize & let oligarchs feast on what The people had built up. Main reason neoliberals hate Trump is because he does it brazenly, without a sneaky stage show.
