SS the Ponzi scheme was designed to supplement savings, not be only source of income. The US government does not have to pay a penny of SS to anybody. The supreme court has already decided on that. Just keep raising the tax. Lots of boomers save the entire check. Aged need to save it for trips to Vegas. Generation XYZ, millennials, and general slackers need to pay more. And more. And more. Wait until the illegals start to collect! Dims love taxes and we must take care of the aged. Thanks.
