http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/16458-austerity-is-dead-stop-pushing-it-drop-the-chained-cpi-and-increase-social-security
Richard Eskow, Campaign for America's Future: It's a misnomer to suggest that Obama's "chained CPI" cut will even "save" what it claims to save from the federal budget. The "savings" figures thrown around in Washington aren't real - but the pain these cuts will cause is very, very real.
