To liberals: With the baby boomers beginning to retire, do you think reforms need to be made to the public system? If so, how would you reform Social Security while protecting seniors?
Yes, reforms do need to be made to shore up the finances of the system, and to tweak benefits (at least for future retirees) a bit to make them more sustainable for future generations. But most certainly I will never support the establishment of private retirement accounts or any variants thereof with payroll tax revenue which do nothing to shore up Social Security but in fact undermine it -which I assume is exactly the intent of those advocating them.
If you want more specifics, check my sig.
