You have it exactly backwards. In trying to preserve a bankrupt universal government-run retirement program, you are promoting explicit socialism
In addition, you are promoting bigger government.
The remedies you suggest, while they might sound nice, do not add up to numbers significant enough to make the programs solvent.
In addition to means-testing these programs, we need to privatize retirement for future retirees.
I mean, whats the difference?
Its coming, folks.

Well now unless we punish those responsible for this mess and limit future benefits it will continue again and again.
You want to means test SS recipients, how about cutting out this abuse of taxpayers to benefit bankers first:
