Who had any choice in paying any taxes.Build the wall, cut off all welfare to illegals and able bodied citizens who just plain don't feel like working for a living. S.S. was paid into without being given a choice, now the Dems want to screw millions of people over who paid into it because Dems used the money to create programs to buy votes with. Make all registered Democrats pay a stupidity tax for putting these bastards in office. Privatize S.S. for everyone under the age of say 30. Cut the budget across the board for everything except S.S. and Medicare. Stop all foreign aid to unfriendly countries (make it illegal). Punish companies who ship jobs overseas. Eliminate Dept. of Energy, Education, DHS, and others that aren't worth a shit. Replace the income tax system with a consumption tax and pass a balanced budget amendment. There are a lot of ways to solve the problem without screwing over those who had no choice but to participate in the system.
My generation will pay equal or more in taxes to sustain your benefits to what you paid. If you make it optional for us, the deficits faced by the programs now will increase, so that is a non-solution.
Social Security should have been properly labeled as a welfare program. The pay now, get back later that they couched it as is nothing but a ponzi scheme.
We will pay your benefits, but either you agree to receive reasonable cuts in benefits, or else the whole ponzi scheme will blow up and there will be a generation that gets NOTHING. Would that be more fair than your generation getting reasonable cuts? No. So Social Security benefits for those above a certain income should be taxed.
