That's a little misleading because the average life expectancy for someone who had reached working age adulthood was much higher than 62 even in the 1930s. But a further raising of the age for payments is one option. So is raising the amount of income subject to social security tax.

You're advocating for higher income tax. I'm shocked.
Structure it like the lottery where you can take a one lump payout at a reduced rate, or take annualized payments. Make SS an actual investment program. Think of ways to grow the pie that don't involve taking more money out of the pockets of Americans.

”the democrats would have spent more” is the new excuse for fucking the deficit yet again. Just like term 1

So with this logic, you must agree that Dems don't actually support abortion, right?

Cutting the zillions of illegals and fraudsters from social security and Medicare should have taken care of the problem.

I'm sure you are but they don't need to be
Democrats accuse the GOP of cutting benefits while H says benefits have to be cut
I'll let him debate himself further
Tax cuts raise revenue. So does cutting spending
Which was what DOGE was about but for some reason you girls wanted to burn Tesla dealerships

It's not gambling or an investment program. It's more akin to insurance.
I do like your idea of doing things with the age of claiming benefits. For example, I'm not taking Social Security before I reach age 70 because payments increase 8% for every year I don't. At age 70, I have no incentive not to take my benefits, even though I won't need them in order to live comfortably. If I had the option of deferring benefits beyond age 70, with benefits still increasing by some percentage, I might choose to bet on my own longevity by waiting. If the fear of most retirees is outliving their money, it seems like an idea worth considering.

That's the "how we've always done it" argument. When was the last actual SS reform? 1983? It can be modernized. Allowing people to take a reduced sum all at once, versus a longer payout, is not gambling.

You, not I, likened it to the lottery.
