That's a statement we'll never agree on. I suspect the atonement of the poor and elderly will be at a far greater scale than the "rich". If Social Security is somehow eliminated, say for those Puffy's age, it will most likely be privatized into a "ponzi scheme" with the poor and elderly's finances being manipulated by the rich in the markets.
We see how that went before, huh? How many millions of people have worthless retirement funds now thanks to improper investment of their money by folks?
I suspect that you really don't know what a ponzi scheme is.
The debt commission came up with a plan to save social security for the next 75 years, using really some minor changes, including raising the age of eligibility of to 69 in 2060. No one who is old enough to be out of onsies is going to be effected by that let alone Puffy, but still, Pelosi declared that "dead on arrival." If we are unwilling to make small easy changes while we still have time to make them, we are surely not going to be able to do anything about medicaid and medicare until we hit the Greek borrowing wall. By then, we'll be a broken country.
