They don’t care what’s left as long as they can bridge the gap from not saving enough for their own retirement…
Nope. Owners own five stores in the area.
Why is that, there are many solutions to the shortfall.
Inflation is now insane, & could easily get worse this winter.Keep your noses to the grindstone.

Lengthen age requirement, increase max wages subject to FICA are two ways
I doubt the "lengthen age requirement" will ever get serious votes, it's a real senior monster no no/vote killer.
"... 75% of ... "
I'm giving them a chance to figure it out themselves before I explain it to them.
@UncleMark volunteers. He deserves all the social security he can get.
I saw a news story on tv a couple of days ago. Fed. gov incoming revenue is great now. Problems are, inflation, supply shortages, employers can't find enough people willing to work, so their current employees are working tons of mandatory overtime.
I know a fair number of seniors who rant regularly about socialism. But I've never met one who refused SS or Medicare on principle.
Those seniors collecting social security and Medicare aren’t sucking off free socialist “stuff”. Most likely they will never live long enough to collect all the social security and Medicare they paid in.
I've heard talk of continuing the SS payments (basically about) like they are now, but make the pay outs depend on a need for income basis. Say you retire, & your net worth is above $400, 000, they may decrease the amount of SS/benefits you get, depending on your financial status. I could see something like that passing congress, easier than raising the age limit requirement.
The majority of Social Security beneficiaries draw out more than they ever paid in.
Sounds good, but maybe not so good for some DC (R)s? I could see Cruz, Paul, Graham, Jordan, ect., ect... the 'Freedom Caucus', 'Club for Growth' & big business fighting that.
What about all the people who pay in and die before they're eligible?
Correct. And I don't begrudge them one bit. Collecting FICA tax on every dollar earned prevents insolvency permanently.
Doesn't it depend on your health, when you were born/how long you worked/paid in & wealth?
No they aren't. My folks are drawing my generation's contributions, I'll be drawing those of my kids'. And besides, a tax is a tax is a tax - and when it funds a program for the collective good, it is by definition socialist. "Socialism" is just a buzz word to trigger dipshits like you. And I don't need to even ask if you are really this ignorant. You prove it here every day.
Oh really ? And what "free socialist stuff" are they not "sucking off" that others are ? My wife has a prescription that costs $500 a month. When she hits 65 and is medicare-eligible, that same prescription will cost less than $100 a month. Granted, that's not "free", but it's a hell of a discount don't you think ?
