2. Don't forget that with the 2% payroll deduction SS will also be a prime target.
Nevermind that the military-industrial complex owes SS trillions of dollars. It will still be tarred and feathered by the Republicans and ran out of town while Dems either get ignored, don't bother fighting or outright join the "other side".

4. Deficit won't be the focus if the economy continues to improve and
unemployment goes down.

5. And don't forget
"Republicans brokered a tax deal that would have lighted the tax burden on the middle class while Democrats like Bernie Sanders stood in the way."

(yes, I know Sanders is an I. Do you think most Rs know the difference?)
