Thank you for your work.

The silence from the progressives, and zero response from anyone in Government are more aggravating, and even frightening, from my point of view.

Only one side is making their case, unopposed by the politicians we worked so hard to elect. Ralph Nader (who I love and admire by the way) is always trying to encourage everyone to write or call Congress. When I do; they never answer or acknowledge, receiving a letter or call.

They don’t even respond on Twitter. If you say something or challenge the statements they make.all they’re doing is commenting, as though they are not in a position to do something.

It’s ridiculous and frustrating!? “makes me so angry”

Of course the GOP can damage or even gut Social Security! look at all the insane laws and ridiculous legal judgments in this country. We are in dire straits.

I don't believe we are in dire straits. Yes, it's infuriating that no one from the Democratic side has yet to address this upcoming budget battle & fiercely fight FOR The People & our precious Social Security, but that doesn't mean it won't happen.

I really don't know what the hell is wrong with Democrats today. I understand there's a lot of hot news but that's no excuse, either.

I definitely call & wrote both my Dem senators repeatedly on this issue. Rethuglicons have fought to destroy FDR'S New Deal programs since they were law.

Both my Dem senators do respond positively on this topic--as they SHOULD. That's all The People can do for now.

The Reichwing House & pro-corporate MSM pundits will be loud until then. It's beyond aggravating!
