re: #156 jaunte
NPR just reported that Social Security payments are at risk because of the Debt Ceiling standoff, without mentioning who’s standing in the way. Journalistic malpractice.
There are a lot of GOP seniors on social security. Something tells me they’d be pretty pissed if they stopped getting their money.
So to be clear: If we default, does that mean SS payments stop indefinitely?
