re: I think you're solution will work to stave off the date from 2042 to sometime in the future. However, what you are proposing is a bandaid fix. No it's not. In fact when the echo boomers come into their prime earning years, you would probably lower the FICA rate. re: Because outflows are not tied to inflows. That is the fundamental flaw of the current system. Let's start naming the government programs where outflow is tied to inflow. ........ Done yet? How about government programs that are fully funded for the next 75 years. ....... Done yet? Hell, I agree with a pay as you go government. You want a war, fully fund this years cost with this years taxes. If it's not important enough for the citizens to pay for, it's not important enough to do. SS is one of the only programs, maybe the only program, that is running a surplus. There are real fiscal crisis wrt government spending, SS ain't one of them. John
