Aug. 19, 2014 | RETIREMENT | (Click image to view) This week marks the 70th anniversary of the Social Security Act. For seven decades, Social Security has been under attack by opponents who consider government-guaranteed pensions for Americans to receive as they get older or if they become disabled to be socialism or unAmerican….For more than 30 years, opponents of Social Security have peddled the lie that the Social Security Trust Fund is going bankrupt or is nearly insolvent. The roots of the efforts to attack Social Security run deep in the far right…The truth is that Social Security wasn't broke in 1980, 1990, or 2012, and it's not broke today. Full story here.
