Plus this. We often paint China as the one who owns allof the debt.
Code: Select all
[code][quote]In April 2019, China owned $1.11 trillion of U.S. debt. It's the largest foreign holder of U.S. Treasury securities. The second largest holder is Japan at $1.06 trillion. Both Japan and China want to keep the value of the dollar higher than the value of their currencies. That helps keep their exports affordable for the United States, which helps their economies grow.[/quote]

What GOP legislator or governor or senator has said they want to abolish Social Security?

If I were to reform it, I'd allow -- on a volitional basis -- younger people to invest up to 10 percent of it in the stock market.

But nobody wants to abolish it.
