Social Security Reform

The Republicans want "Social Security reform" to solidify and make permanent the tax gains they achieved in the 1980s and under Bush the lesser.  The Social Security Trust Fund surplus, generated by increases in the payroll tax passed in the 1980s, has made the massive tax reductions for the wealthy possible.  Surprisingly, the wealthy are so greedy they do not want to share this money with the rest of us.
