One way wealth was moved upward while supporting homeowners facing foreclosure.

"It will be a giant upward transfer of wealth."

The Social Security Administration is cutting 7,000 jobs and closing half of its regional offices. It's no coincidence that Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." They're gutting the program YOU'VE PAID INTO to make room for more billionaire tax cuts.

Now is the time to speak up.
