I would love it if SS was cut. A majority of older folks vote GOP, they should get what they deserve. SS was a democrat program, its time for democrats to stop defending it. Let the old folks have it!

I always find it funny when Republican seniors are outraged by cuts to Social Security. They voted for it, they should live with the results of their vote.
By the way - a major portion of Medicaid goes to seniors too. It goes to senior housing. So when you say cut Medicaid, just know seniors will definitely be affected.

If there are cuts the cuts will not apply to current SS receipients.

You hope. Seniors just love to take government money and it's typically far more than they contribute when you combine Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. But they vote Republican so if a Republican cuts their payout, so be it. They essentially voted for their own cuts. Pretty funny really.

You Democrats keep funding them. The FDR and LBJ Democrats actually believed older individuals needed more government assistance than younger folks.
Maybe the old liberals will die off and you can get your wish.
It kills me when these politicians who are on the public dole and get lifetime pensions and healthcare talk about cutting SS. I say they if they vote out all the bennies they get after they leave office, then I'll consider listening to them. Until then, they are just windbags.

Every Republican in Congress runs on "anti-government" and then collects a government pension and health coverage for life. They aren't going to vote for cuts for themselves, they are going to vote for cuts for you.
I say double the benefits and change the full retirement age to 57 years and 4 months and triple FICA to pay for it.
I say, let the Republicans cut the Social Security, hand seniors a voucher and watch them live their vote.
