the problem lies solely with what today's elderly are demanding and GETTING from the govt.......
there are tons of people that have never worked yet get SS.....tons of people using Medicare like a personal fix it for every single little thing...like toe fungus....and GETTING it all for little or nothing...
SS did not always grab nearly 16% from workers......originally the percantage was very , very small....
so not only do the people collecting today get money, they often get money many times over whatever they contributed, if anything....
to be fair, shouldn't those collecting today be given cuts?
now I am not talking about those who are barely above water, or even those that live relatively well yet simply....
I am talking about the double and triple dippers, and those with massive pensions from private companies .......
