The transpacific trade agreements. and they want to slash the big three. a recent op-ed written by third way s two co founders sounds more like it was written by the wall street republicans. the group called senator warren s fight to expand social security part of a populist political and economic fantasy that ignores an undebatable solvency crisis. really? the group s reasoning leaves plenty to doubt. but you know what, it isn t debatable. the polls show americans want to expand, not cut expand social security. in fact, almost 70% of respondents it said they would be less likely to support a candidate no backs social security cuts. this isn t just a progressive issue. this is what the majority of americans want. but third way is just a surrogate for large corporations, bankers and wall street executives. they view these social security safety nets as numbers. in a budget. they re not talking about ....
