Unfortunately the fact they are drawing seven times what they put in, would be a non-issue if the government was running the program as it should be, or if it was in private hands and the funds taken in were invested rather than ponzied (spent). Most elderly are clueless as to what is being done to the social security, other than, dems, good, republicans, bad.
That statement might be a little too general, but then one might ask oneself why both of the special election candidates are outdoing one another in placating the public with platitudes, ie, I will never vote to increase the age of social security recipiants.
There is a narrow window of opportunity to at least reform the system enough to make it manageable. Once enough baby boomers retire, they will resist any change to the system. Too many have unrealistic expectations and believe that the government can solve any problem. After that point, the only "reform" will be to increase taxes and regulate more and more of the economy to "control" prices. If we miss the opportunity to truly reform things, the socialists will have a number of years to try false "reforms" that will eventually run everything into the ground.
