| Another, probably less problematic solution to social security (thinking into the future on the increased immigration one), would be to simply temporarily increase the social security tax coming out of everyone's paycheck. Also slightly decreasing the benifits for the baby boomers would help alot too. A few dollars either way would make for noticable improvments to funding. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't mind paying an extra $10 (or whatever ammount) every paycheck if it means I'll be able to have the same benifits ready for me when/if I need them. |
