Obama is considering another "payroll tax cut", this time on the employer side of the equation. This is in addition to the payroll tax cut on the employee side of the equation. What this will do is make sure that there is less money going into Social Security. It wont be temporary. As you can see with the Bush tax cuts, once they are there, they are very hard to get rid of.

This is pure insanity. This is the second time Obama will have thrown Social Security under the bus. I really hope that Republicans block this in Congress, because it is very destructive and cynical policy that Obama is pushing just to simply get himself reelected.
He doesnt care about anything but getting reelected. We saw this in 2010, when his political operation shut down and didnt help Democrats in the midterm elections when they badly needed it just so he could get a Republican House to run against.
We saw it again when he basically made the Bush tax cuts permanent last December. He doesnt care about the progressive movement or the Democratic party and he is destroying them(or has already destroyed in the case of the Democratic party) both.
If I wanted a Republican in the White House, I would have voted for John McCain.
