Happy Birthday Social Security—Let's Remember That Mike Pence Was A Cheerleader For The Program's Destruction:
"On August 14, 1935, President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law. Eighty-one years later it still represents one of the most successful social programs in our country’s history. Nearly 2 out of every 3 seniors rely on the Social Security for the majority of their income. If it did not exist, 44% of the elderly would live in poverty (added link). Currently only 9% do. As a member of Congress, Donald Trump’s vice presidential nominee Mike Pence was one of the biggest cheerleaders for George W. Bush’s privatization plans and other reforms that would have harmed the program."
