re: However, my point was that 51% of the people out there want something done about SS. Our government's function is to act in accordance with the will of the people.

Wow! That's the first article I've seen that says the people don't like the idea. All the articles I've read so far say the opposite. But hard to discount a WSJ poll. That's too bad. I knew it was going to be a hard sell in Congress, but didn't know the people would be against it.

All I can say, is that it's a good thing it doesn't impact me too much. Too bad for the younger generation, though. It's a real opportunity lost. ;)
