What Cuts In Social Security or Medicare Would You Make?

[Skull Pilot]

I cut the whole thing.

Let people save the 15% of their lifetime income that is taken from them on their own and by the time they retire they'll be completely able to support themselves

True, assuming they don't piss it all away on a lot of useless shit that eventually ends up in the basement or worse, down at the curb.

Make the saving mandatory just don't give the money to the fucking idiot politicians

MANDATORY? Like a mandate?

It already is mandatory an has been for a long time. BUT it does give people choice on where to save the money

I'd eliminate both.

Stop sending checks to dead people. Get the defrauders out of SS and Medicare. Have a truly independent audit of both systems to identify and fix he redundancies, bloat and bottlenecks.
