You need education. You need subsistence protection. We need jobs and social security. These are preconditions under which it will perhaps be possible to deal with these complex circumstances.

I almost panicked because I wasn't old enough for Social Security and I had no formal education.

We still face a longer-range deficit problem and that will be exacerbated by increases in Medicare and Social Security payments, ... It would be helpful to bring our budget deficit down longer-term. I worry more about that than this temporary increase in the deficit.

Some of it will be covered by insurance and Social Security, but the rest of it we just don't know.

Republicans are hoping no one will notice their rapid retreat from the issue of Social Security.

I don't know of any bills we have. My pension and Social Security aren't huge, but between them we do nicely. We don't require a whole lot.
