I didn't make up these questions, but I need them answered for an assignmnet, so I could think of no better place to get it done.

Answer only "yes" or "no" except on #5

1) Should Social Security be reformed?


2) Is Social Security Necessary?


3) Is Social Security Beneficial?


4) Do you think it will be available when our generation retires?


5) Should Social Security be governmentally modified or Privatly Controled?

1) Should Social Security be reformed?
Yes.

2) Is Social Security Necessary?
No.

3) Is Social Security Beneficial?
No.

4) Do you think it will be available when our generation retires?
No.  (The trust fund, as I recall, is supposed to expire the year I turn 65.  I'm growing ever more convinced that my generation will be called (for various reasons) the Generation that Got Screwed).

5) Should Social Security be governmentally modified or Privatly Controled?
Scrap it entirely if possible, put it into the hands of the people (and the people as persons, not as "the people" manifested in D.C.) with private accounts.

Allow me to rephrase.  Reformed as in Bush's terms- NO.  Reformed as in payroll taxes, lockoboxes, or raising the retirement age- YES.
