Exactly. When will they report that welfare is out of money or foreign aid?

That’s absolutely not why the fund is in danger—it has to do with the income cap on who pays into Medicare. But frankly they just ought to cut Medicare completely and balance the budget.

So are you going to pay for the healthcare costs of all those FORCED to go onto Medicare when they hit 65?

Why would I have to pay anyone’s health care costs? People can do what they did before 1965.

The best way to save social security is to stop sending checks when the recipient gets back what they put in. Add a few percent a year for interest to give a few more years. After that they can use investments such as 401K and IRAs to live.

Well, if you’re for forcing people off something they have no choice in, then yes, you should.
