This Picture Tells a Story: No Social Security Cuts

Photo from MoveOn's Tumblr.

While more than 2 million people signed a petition that was delivered to President Obama today urging him not to cut Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid and to abandon a "chained" CPI formula, hundreds more have left photo messages for the president.

Here's one from MoveOn’s Tumblr site.

Franklin Roosevelt was president when this photo of myself and my mother was taken at the gates of the White House in the early 1940’s. His leadership made Social Security possible. Mr. President, be a strong leader now. He made a promise to all future seniors. Please honor his promise and his vision.
