I hate when these people lump in social security with the rest of this nonsense. It's a system you're forced to pay into, the least the government can do is pay out as promised. I'm all for cutting spending, and ideally I don't even want SS at all, but you have to pay out for the people you forced to pay in.
If they want to modify SS...stop stealing our money for our entire lives first, then we can talk. Let us invest our own money, it would probably do better than their nonsense anyway. Do away with it entirely, but pay your obligations, government.
If they amend the constitution to ban social security and medicare forever, I would gladly accept an immediate end to contributions and a reduced payout when I retire.
