Pulling Back the Curtain (or: A politician accidentally tells the truth)

Yesterday, I heard something that I have never — NEVER — heard an American politician admit on national TV: that the American government has been lying to her people for the past 75+ years. ... Obama: I cannot guarantee those checks go out on August 3rd if we haven't resolved this issue because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it. ... this American president admitted what many people have been saying for decades: not only is the American government stealing money from the people, but the entire Social Security scheme is a lie.
