John,
Last night, Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) wrote a blueprint for destroying Social Security. And the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, who Donald Trump has put in charge of slashing our earned benefits, was persuaded:1
Since Elon Musk’s commission was announced, we have warned that it would be used as a stalking horse to destroy Social Security and Medicare. Elon just confirmed that we were right. If we make sure every American knows the truth, we can fight back and win! Rush $7 today!
For 89 years, through war and peace, boom time and bust, health and pandemics, Social Security has never missed a single payment. Compared to the risky alternatives on Wall Street, Social Security is a rock of retirement security. If billionaires like Elon Musk paid into Social Security at the same rate as the rest of us on all of their income, we could expand benefits for everyone and pay them in full forever. But instead, Elon Musk wants to slash his own taxes even further and leave the rest of us on our own.
This is a declaration of war against seniors, people with disabilities, and the American public. The Republicans are coming for your Social Security, which they call a ‘nightmare.’ Elon Musk’s commission is a plot to destroy our Social Security by giving it to Wall Street executives — so that you get nothing and they get everything.
We’ve seen this play again and again. When Republicans destroyed defined benefit pension plans, they claimed that the market would be able to create amazing returns for everybody. Instead, workers got pennies while Wall Street managers got billions. That is always the plan.
Together, we can defeat Elon Musk, Mike Lee, and every other crooked politician who comes to steal the benefits we’ve earned. Chip in $7 today!
