Chris, > You should research what the thoughts of the creators of SS WERE.

I already did. It was set up as a Ponzi scheme to begin with, since the original beneficiaries did not have to pay one cent.

That was fine when the worker-to-retiree ratio was much larger, but that ratio is sinking. There is no way you can maintain the self-sustaining ratio with the life expectancies we have these days. Not even with immigration.
