John Loeffler Steel on Steel-It’s All Cash Flow, Dummy!-You can see it! You can smell it! The crash is coming!! Social Security and Medicare-
Well there were more “celebrations” in Greece this week as austerity program riots struck that country again. Funny thing, but the U.S. situation is far worse. So is Greece a coming attraction trailer for what will happen here? This week we’ll hyper-focus on monetary considerations that may help us answer that question.
Well is there or is there not a social security trust fund? Dr.Merrill Matthews, Ph.D., from the Institute for Policy Innovation (www.ipi.org) returns to the program to connect a series of dots which paint the real picture of social security and Medicare.
