Here we go again, pitting one generation against another. My many years of working supported the generation that went before me. Now that I am retired (as of Oct. 31st of last year), it sounds like some people want to change the rules so that I decrease so that they (the younger generation) increases.

Well that's what happens when societies idea of "social security" is large Ponzi scheme. It was a scam from the getgo. If you just retired you may still be a winner. I know my kids are gonna be losers in this game. Personally I DO NOT count on any SS income in my retirement in about 15 years. I just hope my private retirement accounts don't suddenly become a source for Government "investment", as proposed by several politicians already such as Jesse Jackson.
