A common misconception and totally wrong. If that were to actually happen, it would be because there is no government, nor a U.S.A anymore.
Well Im 26 and I dont expect to get anything. Let me clarify - after they get done raising the retirement age and slashing benefits and doing whatever else, my return will be pretty negligible compared to the 12.4% that I am effectively paying in with each paycheck. Its a sunk cost to my generation.

and slashing benefits Won't happen.
The benefits will continue to increase with the economy. The way that it is pegged, may change.
