McCain thinks the way Social Security is funded is a "disgrace," since current workers pay for retirees.
He's been taking Navy retirement / disability checks for decades: those are paid by taxing current workers. He's not even taxed on them. Does he think that's a disgrace too?
I don't begrudge him disability at all--but he apparently begrudges Social Security for everyone else.
And more McCain economic absurdity from Kevin Drum and from the irreplacable Hilzoy.
