Can we fix Social Security in time?

Social Security will run out of money in seven years. Even some Republicans think this it’s crucial to raise taxes. Steve Thompson covers the U.S. economy for the Washington Post and he joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why lawmakers are worried about the looming budget deficit, why higher taxes on income is being considered, and how the clock is running out to find solutions before benefits must be cut. His article is “As Social Security fund runs dry, some Republicans say it’s time to raise taxes.”
