Protect Our Social Security

Our Social Security is now at risk thanks to the Republicans. As France has now had their retirement age increased from 62 years to 64 years of age. The people of France fought and are fighting hard, but not hard enough or in the right way, it appears. Their leader circumvented protocol to ram this retirement age higher. Is there anything else they can do? We, here in the U.S., must look hard at how the French lost because if the Democrats lose the next presidential election, the oligarch’s control of the Republicans will use the French’s playbook to raise our retirement age to 72 and possibly cut our Social Security pensions. We need to get ready for the fight to save our Social Security and retirement age as we have them right now. The Republicans have been trying to to destroy Social Security since we started receiving it. It was our old age safety net. They will never stop just like they didn’t stop trying to overturn Roe v Wade, which no one thought could ever happen. At least no one who was paying attention all these years. Now that the French workers are thinking, ‘Just who the hell did we vote for that voted for this and how do we roll the new retirement age back?’ As they work out their solution, we need to vote to ensure what happened to the French workers doesn’t happen to us. We need to vote for people who stand with the workers, and are our American workers listening and watching what is happening here, but also keep an eye on how the French continue to fight and hopefully reverse what their leader did to their retirement age. It's up to us, whether we're retired or not, to protect our Social Security for future generations. The volatile stock market proves why we cannot have our retirement tied to it.
