extract Here's how it works: Everyone 55 and up gets to stay in the current system. Everybody else gets their benefits cut. Bush was startlingly blunt about this, saying, "I have a message for every American who is 55 or older: Do not let anyone mislead you; for you, the Social Security system will not change in any way. For younger workers, the Social Security system has serious problems that will grow worse with time." Bush then listed off a bunch of benefit cuts that have been proposed by Democrats in the past: "indexing benefits to prices rather than wages," "increasing the retirement age," "discouraging early collection of Social Security," and "changing the way benefits are calculated." |
