Merrill Matthews joins Jimmy Barrett and Shara Fryer on Houston's KTRH to discuss the federal government's warning that Social Security's funds will be depleted by 2035. Matthews warns that Democrats want to raise taxes on Social Security so that more money is coming in. "That's not going to fix the problem. In fact it will probably make the problem much worse," Matthews said.
