Similar to Ryan plan.
I am not defending any plan that does not recognize that SS and medicare are rcreating deficits now, they are spending borrowed money NOW.
Tell you what, cut those progams now and save the trust fund IOUs for us.
The 55 age threshold is not accidental, its the GOP base voter. Its the one group Romney won solidly.
We’ve all known this was coming. We will all be working and fall over dead in our chairs or assembly line (if the robots haven’t taken that away yet) never collecting a dime if our social security. Meanwhile a guy that wants to get his name in the news and probably has so much cash reserves from making an annual multi-millionaire salary that he won’t need it makes this recommendation. I’m so surprised...
let the teachers and the bankers and the secretaries work till 70...
in principle I agree with postponing retirement, but lets do it for the military and all the govt jobs....
no one should be collecting anything before age 60 minimum....
and I think we should index....pay everyone who has paid into SS everything they paid in, but then INDEX it all to your other govt pensions....so those $100,000 a yr govt retirees will at least not be raking in any more....its obscene and insane as it is....
