Republicans want to raise the retirement age.
I, for one, don't believe that 87-year-olds should be bagging groceries at the supermarket.
I've got another idea: force the people on top to pay their fair share in taxes so we can expand benefits.

People are facing a tough retirement. and it's even harder for workers to save due to low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire in.

The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

It's recommended to save at least 20% of your income in a 401k. Sonya Lee Mitchell taught me to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. I've been with her for years now and her decades of experience in the markets translate to chunks of value in so may ways! She has upscaled my portffolio and even got me reading self help books haha

@@tridentyyz1031More people are working now and contributing to the retirement fund than ever before. The problem is management of the funds. Social Security was set up during FDR’s tenure when the average American only lived till about 67 years old so retirement at 62 wasn’t that long. Maxing out Social Security tax as low as it is, is the problem as Bernie states. Someone making $1 million plus only paying the same as someone making $168k is crazy. They don’t have to go crazy with it but a steady increase isn’t wrong either

In Denmark, retirement age aligns with projected life expectancy. Consequently, each generation retires later. Programs exist to allow those unable to work to retire earlier. This policy fosters a robust economy by maintaining a sufficient workforce, ensuring tax revenue, and promoting ongoing economic growth. While I will retire at 69, younger generations will retire even later. Despite this, due to our longer life expectancy, we should enjoy a similar number of senior years after retirement as previous generations who retired at a younger age.

We all need to listen to Bernie. He is telling the truth. Working people need to quit cheering on Billionaires that don’t give a darn about anyone else.

The payments will drop 20%. It won't evaporate. Billionaires pay as much social security tax as a plumber. Billionaires not paying their fair share are literal vultures.

Raise the retirement age when the life span in America is dropping off a cliff? Might as well tell people they have to work til they drop dead. RAISE TAXES, and lift the cap.

Didn't the Reagan era folks already raise the retirement age? Gutted the Unions. Hell, we already work until we damn near drop as it is. We've got Dead Grandpas as maintenance grounds workers at cemeteries.😂

The lifespan expectancy is actually going down. Raising the retirement age shortens what little retirement people will have.

If they have their way, the retirement age would be 120. That you don't get to retire unless you're rich like Trump who retired on the day he was born.

Just raise the cap on SS to 400,000 and it will have money to keep it solvent for years.

Gee it's like if you design an economic system that concentrates wealth to the few from the many and you don't have the few pay their fair share of taxes to meet the country's needs, everything just falls apart.

Why is it they keep saying SS is an ENTITLEMENT ? It’s not . We paid into it and our employer adds to it . They should put back the money they stole from it years ago amongst other things . I’m 61 , lost my job of 30 years because I’m considered old and made to much money . Thanks for that. Finally we hear someone say raising the age is not the way to go .

In Switzerland we voted a few days ago on the proposal by the Young Liberals, a centre right party, to increase retirement age from 65 to 66 years. Needless to say it was rejected 75% to 25%.

Yeah, it's so great that the generation who constantly voted for corporate-loving jerks like Reagan, Bush, Bush, Trump ... and got to enjoy all the benefits of a social welfare system put into place back in the 40s/50s now want to make it hard for younger people to ever retire. Thanks for only thinking of yourselves....

My grandpa will be 88 on his next birthday after retiring at 70 ( by choice ) he's now looking for something part time. He thought that with his 401k along with his savings and investments he wouldn't really have to worry about anything. He told me with taxes going higher and higher and the cost of living has trippled in a short time, he's got to find something that'll give him at least 25 hours a week.

Oh man, the average lifespan of a man in the US is 73. If they push the FRA to 70, so everything I put into Social Security over 35 years gets me 3 years?!! I can’t support that.
