If we raise the cap on social security it won't matter if the rich get SS and we keep the age at 65 an it will be good for 75 years. I don't believe in raising the age limit. People are very tired by 65 (especially people who have had to do hard labor all their lives) and generally have aflictions like knee and joint problems or other physical problems like diabetes, etc. And just the difference between 65 and 70 is huge in how one feels. I see old people trying to work after 65, on their feet all day and they are in pain as often as not. Compassion dude!
