Democrats just increased your monthly Social Security check by 8.7%

Republicans want to slash Social Security.

MAGAS are fine with these cuts because all they care about is owning the libs.

the subject of entitlement reform has been a bipartisan understanding behind the curtains for quite awhile now. neither party wants to act on it because it's political suicide.

republicans are obviously more inclined towards it, but they're afraid of the dems because of the media buzz that'll ensue.

[HoopsNY]

It's not that Republicans want to cut social security. It's that the entire system is unsustainable.

Social security is set to become insolvent by 2033. We're literally 10 years from a catastrophic event that could have lasting impacts, especially if the recession we're in continues over the long haul. As a nation, we can't continue to borrow and increase the national debt.

People would rather manage their money now. Keep in mind, life expectancy - for example - for males, has dropped to 73 years. With the retirement age climbing to 67, how is it worth it to receive social security for maybe 6 years?

The program has a good intent, but the reality of its upkeep is often ignored.

How will the government sustain social security long term? And how does it make sense for males given the lower life expectancy and higher age requirement?

I don't think that's what anyone is saying. But I'm still wondering, how do you sustain social security long term?

interesting question considering we have less babies born , and x generation has to get past pay out of baby boomers.
remember inflation also means 16-50 year old's will be paying more in.

The biggest issue I have seen is where money is borrowed from it, and no interest is collected.
It is an issue / but government is to govern people , to protect people , and taking it away is not protecting people.
A previous poster stated longevity has decreased in the world. Where the hell did that come from.

People are living longer than ever. My mum would of died 10+ years earlier , but the medical industry pumped drugs into her to
gain money. With two diseases arthritis and Parkinson she lived to 86 and was wheel chair and bed ridden.

my question to the republicans who want to take it away , and say that individuals should invest in their own ... dah we have been 401k plans
because pensions aren't like they used to be. Why doesn't the government invest funds to support S.S. ?????????????

They are total scum.

Look up the average ages in America. I believe the average age of both men and women are falling, but for men it's particularly alarming at age 73. It's very likely a lot of men will pay into social security and never see what they paid.

You may have a 401k, but only around 100 million Americans do. That still leaves almost 60 million Americans who do not. And it's tough to invest in a retirement account if you're already paying 15.4% in FICA, in addition to all of the other taxes that you're required to pay.

I don't profess to have the answers, but one thing is certain is that social security is unsustainable. So now what?

Look up the life expectancy* not average ages.

[Jasper]

People also ask
What is the life expectancy rate for males and females in the USA?
What Is The Life Expectancy Of An American Male Or Female? Gender Specific Figures: Male: 76.1 years - Average life expectancy of a US male (at birth). Female: 81.1 years - Average life expectancy of a US female (at birth).

76 has been the nom for about 15 years.

81 has gone up for woman. last 10 years.

[Gohan]

What they expect? People to go broke and die? Fvck republicans straight up, people need help sometimes. The constantly working thing is for selfish white men that don’t understand everyone aint able

The question is interesting to you, yet, you're too dim to entertain it yourself...

The first thing we need to do is increase deductibles for Medicare... second thing is for the government to stop providing NEW employees benefits that are no longer offered by other employers (pension, full coverage of healthcare etc.) Next, as much as I hate to say it, reduce military spending... some things we just need to give up on. No need to fund Pakistan or any other country... we're just not in a position to anymore.

I obviously don't have any way of knowing if this is enough to save social security... i doubt it is, but it's a start.

hope you know that as of next year I will be spending $2k on medicare and you are telling us we need to increase deductibles...
majority of people on medicare as myself are on fixed incomes. Each of us will be spending a base line of over $2k ... with a healthy year.
You may think this is a deal... but -
fixed income people do NOT need more costs.

Hey MAGA Jackoffs,

Come to your senses.

I don't think anyone expects the government to cancel social security just like that. There has to be a proper plan in place to replace it. The question is, what is it? And in the absence of any real change, how do we as a nation sustain it?

[Lakers Legend#32]

Republicans consider your Social Security and Medicare to be wasteful government spending programs.

GOP is fazing out both over a five year period.

Replacement? The Rethugs had no replacement for the Affordable Care Act either.

[eliteballer]

Republicans: Government spending is out of control, so let's cut Social Security and Medicare for regular folks so we can also keep cutting taxes for corporations and the rich.

that's right the idea is to increase retirement age , and soon the death rate will be under a year ,so the budget is balanced.

Divine language is words that can be said only one way, anything that can possibly be misinterpreted is wrong. We need to work it out again.

[rawimpact]

Well it needs to be cut... this is a bipartisan issue is it not? There just is not enough money the support it. Obviously the money saved increasing the FRA needs to go back to the program to sustain it.

Can you tell us how the Democrats propose?
