1. Worst case we get 80% of promised benefits. SS pays out what it takes in. Bad, but not zero.
2. Agreed unless SS is "fixed" benefits will be cut.
3. Agreed the "benefit" is years collecting benefits and not years worked.
4. Agreed that SS tax should be added to all income as you outline to generate more revenue. My alternate solution would be a new 4% sales tax to cover the Budget Deficit.
On top of our current inflation, how do you think that would be good for the economy?
