Most of us paid into SS expecting that it was a portion of our eventual retirement income and a tax supporting others less fortunate, but to change the rules of the game on many seniors who were the backbone maximum contributors to SS is absolutely wrong. If SS was means tested..how do you decide who needs it?
We need to change the system for those that are younger so that Congress cannot steal their money like they have done to the rest of us.
Well that was the first problem.

There is mathematically no possible way that the Fed. Gov. can continue to pay those who are on SS or anywhere near retirement, without continuing the payroll tax transfer from the young.
You could eliminate the entire Federal Government, except for SS and Medicare and they would still be tens of trillions short.
So now what?
