NOT willing to give anything up... those that payed into SS should expect to receive their $$$. I have other forms of retirement income but want my SS check as well. Ive payed into SS for 42 years and counting. If you didnt plan for the future (retirement) you failed. SS by it's self isn't a retirement plan why do so many people see it that way? See what happens when you hand out those participation trophies... everyone expects to get something even though they didn't earned it. People holding out their hand just pisses me off. You want something go earn it like everyone else!!!!
