Jake LaTurner on Social Security

 

 


Slowly increase retirement age; means testing for wealthy

First of all, we should make no changes to those at or near retirement age. Those are benefits that have been earned and should not be messed with. However, the program is going broke and for future generations we need to look at small changes to ensure that Social Security can continue to exist for them. Those should include slowly increasing the retirement age by two years (2 months per year over a period of 12 years) and instituting means testing for extremely high income individuals.
