Social Security will be around...it's just HOW and WHO get's us there....tax increase on the wealthy 1% or more free market ideals.....also, there are many alterations that can be had on the current system: 1.) income derived from investments for high income recipient will reduce their benefit for that year 2.) Raise cap earnings subjet to FICA

I have no evidence for this but if you are under 40 and think you are getting one penny of Social Security when you retire then I can't help but think you are deluded. =)

Kiss your Golden Years goodbye before you even get old. And don't wonder where all your Social Security $ went, that you have been paying all your life, supposedly to be returned when you are old and retire.
