Whenever "policy makers" throw around words like "reform", "giving tools", and "bipartisan" you know that whatever else they say, they are talking about screwing over the peasant class.
Truth.
You know, all those trillions we dumped in the sand in Iraq and Afghanistan would have kept SS solvent for 50 years.
We need to take away all politicians " get out of jail free" card and hold their feet to the fire.

It was a Ponzi scheme then and it still is now. Like most schemes, the chickens are now coming home to roost. Birthrates are dropping and the ratio of young to old makes SSI unsustainable. That's why the democrooks have opened the borders, letting in working age to supplement this aging population.

It's all in non-negotiable treasuries. Congress redeems these non-negotiables when and as needed.
