Reversing the Bush Tax Cuts Would Not Fix Social Security
President Bush's 2001 and 2003 tax cuts stimulated investment andexpanded employment, adding some strength to the Social Securitysystem in the process. Extending these tax cuts permanently wouldhelp to lock in these gains and spur further economic expansion. Incontrast, a straightforward repeal of the President's tax cutswould harm both the economy and Social Security.
