Ferd,
Actually it does not require, nor is it being proposed, the breaking of social contracts with people that in good faith contributed. every plan to reduce SS starts with adjusting the rules for those just now in the early stages of contributing. And lets say they raise the age from 65 to 67 or 70? I’m much closer to the retirement age than I am to the just now contributing stage and I do not see such an action as breaking faith or a contract. But then I’m one of those perverted, disfunctional types who doesn’t believe it is the government’s job to take care of me.
