Why is it going to implode? All those baby boomers put all that money into it, with interest. A lot of them died at 59 and didn't get one dime out of the program. And it should have been getting 4% interest. So how is it imploding?It's not unconstitutional, as it really isn't a tax but a government program funded by those who put into it. The current ruling against removing the funding for the consumer protection authority shows even this court probably isn't going there.
Now if it was a good idea or not, considering it's about to implode, and how shitty it was run during the surpluses is a separate debate.
If it's because too many boomers are taking out of it and not enough workers, we need to figure out another way to fill he fund.
Did politicians take money out? Then they need to put it back, with 4% interest.
And my favorite. Raise corporate and rich people's taxes back to before Reagan. So don't just undo the Trump tax breaks. Don't just undo the Bush tax breaks. Undo the Reagan tax breaks too.
