I was mortified to find this email in my In box this morning. I thought it must be spam at first--and in reality, it did go into my Junk folder.
Since when does a government agency become a propaganda arm for the Administration in our good old USA? Since when does the Commissioner of Social Security speak for "The Social Security Administration" on a highly divisive political issue that they have no business meddling in? Bisignano has been in the job all of six weeks, and when he was first offered the job he had no idea what it was and admitted to having to Google it to see what the job is. Gee, I wonder why the Trump Administration wanted to hire someone with such a lack of knowledge of the position?
While there is a short term benefit to some current Social Security recipients (read: the wealthier ones) in the form of a tax cut, since most taxes on Social Security go back into funding Social Security for the future, it comes at the expense of Social Security being solvent for less time in the future.
Irresponsible, disgusting, pathetic. One more step down the path to a dictatorship.
There have been lots of laws passed over the years to protect the environment, for example. How many of us got letters on EPA letterhead claiming that "The EPA" is celebrating the passage of the bill?
