Entitled to Know

What a difference a week makes! There has been more discussion and debate about this administration’s phony Social Security crisis in the past 9 days than we’ve seen since 2005.

Thank goodness.

We’ve been talking about it for years (although it felt more like a monologue sometimes than a dialogue) including most recently here, here and here. Dean Baker at the Center for Economic and Policy Research has also written many good pieces on the administration’s phony “entitlement crisis” propaganda.

Even so, the Washington Post continues its Social Security obsession. As we sat down to write another composite of this week’s debate we found this wonderful post at The Economist’s View which sums it all up wonderfully.
