SS is a tax, plain and simple. The SCOTUS has already ruled (Flemming v. Nestor) that we are NOT entitled to payments and that Congress can repeal the Act, anytime it wants.

That said, why then are payments taxable? We are being taxed TWICE. The solution is simple:
1. Eliminate Depts of Energy, Education, HHS and HUD. Also EPA, BATF, OSHA, FannieMae, FreddieMac.
2. Cap all federal employees, elected or appointed, to $100K/yr.
3. Cut 25% of all Versailles employees.
4. Reduce Congressional staffers to 3 per member.
5. True up Medicare to SS eligibilty and eliminate Medicaid.
6. Repeal DeathCare, Davis-Bacon, Baseline Budget and Sarbanes-Oxley.
7. Cut personal Federal income tax to 10%, with only deductions for dependants. Corporate rate cut to 25%.
8. Eliminate all Foreign Aid, including UN contributions.
9. Elect Sarah Palin the next President of the US.
10. DRILL, BABY, DRILL.

THEN we can talk about more serious cuts.
