I know it's a pipe dream but cutting off completely such things as food stamps, S.S.I., E.I.T.C.,getting non citizens off every program, would go a long way towards making S.S. solvent. The recipients of many government "gimmes" have never paid a cent for them.
Others, like my father who paid S.S. taxes from its inception until his death in 1974, paid and paid and paid and never received anything. My mother wasn't even eligible for survivors benefits because she made too much money working part time in a school cafeteria, now criminal Mexicans are eligible for a host of programs.
Eliminate the true welfare bums first then talk about S.S. receivers who have worked and paid in all their adult lives.
Like I said - pipe dream, at least in my life time.
