I would actually respect him if he ended social security. No way he has the balls to do that, though. He's probably just going to raise the retirement age. Make a bad program even worse than it already is.

If they refund my $$ I would be totally fine

Has anyone ever gotten more U.S. government assistance than Elon.  SpaceX gets almost all of their money from the government. Tesla was able to be profitable because of government mandated credits from other auto manufacturers. And I’d be shocked if Starlink wasn’t getting government money too.

really?

why?

Because the people who would be most affected by it voted for it. I think people should get what they vote for.

If it ever happens, they won't just flip a switch, they will do some bene reduction in such a way that nothing happens for ppl that are on it or will be in the next 10 yrs, but the ppl that are 20-10 yrs out will get 50%, and everyone more than 20 yrs out will get dick.

Or something like that.

You guys are wasting keystrokes here. The only people that need to worry about DOGE are working for the government from home that basically do nothing constructive. Will save hundreds of billions per year.

Yeah, I don't support that at all. Rip the cord or leave it alone.

I think we could keep SS solvent. We just need to institute mandatory age limits. All government benefits cease at 85. I could be persuaded +/- a few years, but that's the general concept.

It could be made solvent by increasing the income cap on contributions. Doesn't change that it's an investment with an awful return. The elderly have voted, and they don't want it. It's immoral to force young people to continue paying for it while also working to make it even worse for them.

Good to hear.  It would be a huge betrayal
