At the time SS was first passed and brought into law there were a great many of the elderly who lived the final in abject poverty. Over the many decades it has proven invaluable in helping out that elderly cohort. There have AMPLE opportunities to revise and update the systems for decades. I feel your pain. I have heard that there won't be a dime left when I am 78 so - I feel your pain.
Did you know that giving amnesty to the undocumented aliens in the US and bringing them into the SS system just about overnight solves the shortfall of Social Security. Pretty decent idea.
