3) This program was started because it was needed. I see no signs that it is no longer needed. People just don't like paying for it. Perfectly healthy people having trouble stomaching the fact that sick and/or old people are getting money to live. I think there are 2 types of people against Social Security. Some (mainly men) are just selfish. That's not unique. Then, there are a group of people (often women) that object to it on the basis of fairness. Unfortunately, people aren't challenged in "fair" ways. Some people die of a heart attack on the job. Some people die at 88. Is it unfair for the former to have their money used to give checks to the 88 year old? Well, it's called shared risk. Even the person who died on the job probably had a loved one live a long tme, and get more than what some would call "fair." You will never have a totally fair world. You can only have a civilized world.

fine and dandy if that were the case but it is not ( general fund.)
whether direct or not funds go to paying for everything including Obama's aunt he barely knows, all of the illegals treated through e-rooms or not, their children etc. The families who have nothing to show but maybe an appearance on Maury or Jerry both black and white who seemed destine to nothing but gestation and repeat X2 ( start at 15.)
Truth ( say tough love ) hurts but as our President said these are tough times!
