<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1505432, member: 26302&quot;]It has already been a trial balloon politically. &quot;Someone&quot; has already stated its unfair that those with healthy retirement plans continue to collect large SS benefits while others without retirement plans don&#039;t get as much in SS. &quot;Unfair&quot; politically usually means they are planning to do something about it if they have a chance. </p><p><br /></p><p>With SS, there are only 2 options: Either tax income to infinity while capping benefits like they do with medicare, or limit benefits somehow. I don&#039;t think taking away a retirees SS that has no assets and only $800 a month to live on is politically viable, so what other alternatives would there be? To me, its either tax income to infinity or take away SS if you were stupid enough to save for retirement. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Having said that, I am still saving for retirement just in case they choose the first option. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry mods, not trying to be political, just practical when it comes to retirement planning. If you believe its political please delete.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
