Really key point here. The overall national poverty rate would be 6.5 points higher without social security, it reduces poverty by a much larger multiple than any other US gov't program. And again, this is in terms of the total population, not the poverty rate of seniors alone.

Our seniors are not waste. Social Security is an EARNED benefit that Americans are entitled to. The real fraud = GOP giving tax handouts to billionaires. And the real abuse = making it harder for seniors and people with disabilities to get their benefits.
