Social Security cuts are off the table.
... the retirement age will eventually need to be raised

Erm... raising the retirement age is cutting Social Security.  You really need to step away from the talking points Kool-aid.

Obviously Social Security cuts for those retired or nearing retirement are off the table. As I mentioned, being 65 in 2052 is very different from being 65 in 1952. The obvious economic reality is that the retirement age will need to be raised for future generations, people who are younger than 20 today almost certainly, due to the fact people are living much longer than they did when SS started 80 years ago. That raise will not happen for years, though.

How so? Aren't Republicans opposed to biotechnological research that could slow the aging process down?
