Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi announced that she will appoint Nancy Altman to the Social Security Advisory Board. The Board is a bipartisan, independent federal government agency established to advise the President, the Congress, and the Commissioner of Social Security on matters of policy and administration of the Old-age, Survivors and Disability Insurance and the Supplemental Security Income programs.
“Nancy Altman is a widely respected voice on the need to protect and strengthen Social Security for future generations,” said Leader Pelosi. “Nancy brings the strength of expertise forged in decades of experience and strategic advocacy. She understands the threats facing this vital pillar of Americans’ retirement security, and its enormous importance to the lives of seniors and their families. Nancy will be a wise and tough champion for our seniors on the Social Security Advisory Board.”
Altman is the co-founder and president of the Strengthen Social Security Coalition and Social Security Works, and served on the faculty of Harvard University. She is a graduate of Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania Law School.

Looks like she is closed minded and there is no indication she has the math background to truly understand the problem. It is one thing to be kind and helpful, but it quite another to face hard decisions.
She is for seniors which means she is against the workers today and the yet unborn.
Capitalism is not a zero sum game and neither is a social safety net. You can be for everyone.
