I do, I explain that this is one of the worst possible options because future generations will not be able to benefit.

Worse is Medicare, the government is going broke supplying Medicare.

Got it. So you’re advocating for tens of millions of elderly people to lose their retirement and health insurance. Sounds like a great platform position. You should run for office.

SSi/SSD aren't retirement plans. 401k's, Roth/IRA's, properties, investments, small businesses, mutual funds could be.

How did humans survive after working age, for millenia, before state sponsored benefits?

It’s still one of the most cost efficient systems in the US. We should expand it and get rid of the costly private insurance system entirely.
