When Social Security started it was meant as a SUPPLEMENT to people's pensions, unfortunately what happened is companies started getting rid of pensions or spent them into non existance (much like the government has done to SS), inflation hurt the pension and noone expected the life expectancy to shoot up as far as it has.
If SS is to survive, people have got to understand it is a supplement only. Government must find a way to make companies secure their pension plans better. SS is a great program but it can only work as a supplement not as a full income.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
