This is actually a mostly inaccurate report (hacked #SocialSecuity numbers stolen.)

First sign this story is nonsense: "*Billions* of SSN numbers were stolen."

There are only 320M Americans (add another 200M if counting deceased within the last two decades.) Not a total lie, but nothing to panic over either.

3) So what exactly are the #GOP's plans for #SocialSecuity?

There is much talk of "SAVING" the program of keep a "PROMISE" to the America people, of avoiding bankruptcy of the program. The hand-wringing is impressive, but how does the GOP plan to fix things?

Unsurprisingly with cuts to the age of entitlement from 67 => 70 or means testing.

NEVER mentioned is raising taxes on free-riding businesses and the ultrawealthy
