Robert Reich on Chained CPI (the proposal to cut Social Security benefits)

Burgess COMMENTARY
I am, frankly, disgusted at the way the rich and powerful have continued to profit mightily in the past four years while ordinary people have continued to struggle, and in spite of best efforts continue to lose ground. There is something fundamentally wrong and it is not being addressed.

Robert Reich on Chained CPI (the proposal to cut Social Security benefits)

The Chained CPI, deceptively portrayed as a reasonable cost of living adjustment, is a cut to Social Security that would hurt seniors.

Watch Robert Reich explain why Chained CPI is so stingy in this video, and then sign his SignOn.org petition to President Obama at http://www.signon.org/sign/mr-preside.... This video is a MoveOn original.
