Ah the good ol’ conservative mantra. Cut spending to programs that work. Claim government doesn’t work. Cut spending even more, turn program useless, point at it as an example that government doesn’t work. Blame Government for useless program, push to “privatize” it - moving the goalposts every time people mention that you’re trying to destroy a system that worked…

So let’s see… “Not keeping up with inflation” vs “reducing it even further”…
You lack critical thinking skills.

The claim is he wants to eliminate it. A reduction in benefits isn’t an elimination of the program. Two very different things.
