Do you have any examples where the republicans showed real courage in totally dumping medicare/SS? Because Reagan was the one who raised the SS taxes so high last time did he not?

There is an out in the Social Security law. Municipalities can opt out. Oregon is the first state to draft a resolution to opt out of Social Security.
