100% on the money.  The system is unsustainable, but people have to have sufficient notice for planning.

This has nothing to do with Trump.  The SS disaster has been long known and yet punted since Bush The First.

I'm not even sure if folks understand how SS works. It is figured from your top 30 years of income. The notion being that you paid more into the system. So any cut in the program is going to affect the richer more so than the poorer; as they have already given, now they are getting a deduction in their investment.

This is why I stated I have no problem with scraping it today, but do not take from those that have already paid in.

Some folks just love to complain and often do not know what they are complaining about.
