Who said anything about cutting SS? CPI might lower the increases though.

WHich Prez/Congress didn’t even give a COLA to SS recipients for the couple of years?

Considering the nature of SS from the beginning, the age at which a recipient can begin to receive it should be adjusted each year according to actuarial tables.

But it’s an ‘entitlement’ now.

This is why nothing will get cut. Everyone wants to cut everyone elses spending, but not “their” spending.
