Once it became actuarily unsound it became a form of welfare. I am working on getting my money back.

re means-testing will change SS into a form of welfare.

I don't see it that way. Welfare would be the case only if you did not pay into the system. Granted, many are the politicians who would like to make that happen.

I think it would turn SS into a form of insurance.
