[Peace-discuss] The Washington Post Wants Your Social Security to Pay for the War

[Robert Naiman]

The Washington Post dismisses concerns about the cost of the
Afghanistan war on the grounds that it is less than 1% of US GDP. But
the Post supports raising the Social Security normal retirement age,
although the savings to the government from doing this would be less
than 1% of US GDP.
