If we cut spending, there would be no deficit. The wealthy don't have to be concerned about the health of Social Security but middle class people do have to be concerned. They should stop spending their money on crap and save for the future. SS is a way to go thru life and never be responsible for taking care of yourself. Good luck to the boomers counting on social security* because they will need it.* It was never intended to be depended on, rather as supplement. You have turned it into retirement package paid for by future generations. CUT PORK BARREL SPENDING> then we can talk.
