The DISABILITY trust fund is way over budget and prone to fraud. Something needs done.
Maybe the money should come from a reduced military budget, a national 1% sales tax, etc. But bankrupting the RETIREMENT fund isn't the way to go.
The discussion should be how to properly/fairly help those truly disabled. Anyone wishing to bankrupt the RETIREMENT fund isn't looking at the big picture but just just playing politics.
People like the OP who think it's ok not to pay taxes really shouldn't have an opinion at all when discussing the distribution of tax monies.

You know it is the same bank account right? If you go fuck all crazy with your checking account then your savings account will need to cover it. Not like you get to just close the fed up and we still get SS since it was over there by that building and not over here.
