You’re right, there should be no immediate affect to people who voted gimme their entire lives. We should all push the consequences for bad policy to our children.
Me personally, I’d rather fell the pinch myself than pinch my kids. But maybe I value their future more than you do.

Lol, what self-centered nonsense. So, people who paid into a system for forty or more years "voted gimme all their lives"? And they deserve no notice if, after forty or more years paying in, the retirement age is raised?

It's amazing that so many fail to see that the ones who paid into SS all their lives are not the ones who "voted gimme all their lives". Those would be welfare recipients and recipients of benefits from other programs they never paid into. But it's just so much easier (and cowardly) to make SS the political whipping boy.

Carry on.
