Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : Catherine Rampell claimed in her Nov. 22 Wednesday Opinion column, "Why we're borrowing to fund the elderly while neglecting everyone else," that Social Security is a major driver of our growing national debt, that programs for seniors are "gobbling up an ever-growing share of our future spending obligations."
42% : On the contrary, Social Security cannot add one cent to the national debt because it is prohibited from borrowing.
