Yes, cutting the amount spent by the Federal Government in ways other than by cutting social security benefits

I certainly agree that cutting Federal spending in other areas is crucial, but I cannot see how current Social Security benefits can be maintained. We are already spending more on S.S. each year than is collected in taxes. The difference is coming out of the general fund. That will only become worse.

Here’s an idea. Stop cutting the payroll tax which directly funds social security payments. Oh, I forgot - that is a bipartisan “tax cut”.
