Reagan ........ saved SS

By raising the average annual SS taxes paid by working Americans almost 50 percent.

Now, that solution would work if we did it again today. No doubt about it.

But you'll never hear Sanders, Trump, or Clinton telling that particular truth.

It's a stupid fix and not needed. Do what FDR advised in his OWN SS SPEECH in 1935, namely privatize it.

S&P has outperformed the SS fund tenfold.
