However, there is one step that President Obama can take to boost the economy without going through Congress: He can reaffirm his support for Social Security and assure the baby boomers nearing retirement that he will not allow their benefits to be cut. If this huge cohort in their late 40s, 50s and early 60s knows that they can count on getting their promised benefits, they will feel more comfortable spending and supporting the economy at a time when it badly needs a boost.
I've got a better idea, prick. How bout we buy the boomers' homes for pennies on the dollar and then we'll be kind and let them rent the houses. They won't even have to hire a mover.
