Republicans say Social Security and Medicare won't be part of debt ceiling negotiations between Speaker Kevin McCarthy and President Joe Biden.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy left his first White House visit with confidence that he and President Joe Biden could negotiate a spending deal, but the real test may come in negotiations with his own Republican conference.
McCarthy, who had to bargain with hardline conservatives to win his speaker bid after 15 rounds of voting, leads a fractious caucus where some members are willing to gamble with the nation's credit score and global economy to try and get the federal spending cuts they want. But what those cuts are, nobody seems to know.
"Their writ large approach seems to be take the hostage first and then they’ll figure out later what they want," Rep. Brendan Boyle, D-Pa., ranking member of the House Budget Committee, told USA TODAY.

Social security is neither social nor secure. It’s not you paying for yourself in the future, it’s the young people bailing out the old, and there’s more non-working old now than ever. It disincentivizes saving and promotes reliance on the “government” which is really just other people’s money. Would rather get a discount on my taxes so I can put more away in an index fund, but that would make way too much sense.
Do Republicans lie? Santos trump all of em
