You sound like you're echoing the MSM and that current SS recipients are going to get cuts in their benefits.
WELL, THEY'RE NOT! Stop with yours and theirs nonsense.
Companies are of course terminating their company sponsored life time health care programs for employees following their retirement. They're also terminating the company sponsored retirement plans and instead offering generous 401K savings plans for existing and new employees.
There's no way any company can endure a lifetime of legacy benefits for current employees who may retire in the future.
I'm a fortunate recipient of those legacy costs which were promised me all the years of my employment.
Today's employees will no longer have that benefit and so it will be up to them to plan accordingly. But one thing is for certain, the government should not be responsible for their welfare following their retirement.
Social Sec. contributions should be voluntary, not mandatory. Unfortunately they are mandatory in order to supply SS benefits to those who never really earned it.
And that's a problem that needs to be addressed also......

Spending is the problem.
In fact, Brett Baier won’t call it a Debt Crisis, he’s calls it an Entitlement Problem.
They don’t want to stop the Money Train, so they use that language.
Anyone who has watched the past couple Congresses spend multi-Trillions without reading the legislation, knows anything saved in SS will be spent out another door to erase America and feed the Failed City Administrations.
