Absolutely.  What constitutes the "right" of even upper middle-class 
to reap a monetary harvast of that which they have contributed, plus
gargantun interest, for LIFE?  Such a "right" exists only in the
political power and astuteness of the more financially secure elderly. 
If their greed is allow to prevail, social security will not.  It is
that simple.
