Uh, floating the retirement age (even to 75 or 80) to ensure annual solvency sure beats bankrupting and destroying the nation.

When will people realize that 30-40 years of retirement funded by current workers just won’t work?

You want a long retirement while you have decades of health to enjoy? Save your (own) pennies!
