This Washington Post editorial, calling for benefit cuts to Social Security and Medicare(!!), represents the thinking of almost no one in America except for a few extremists and billionaires, like their owner Jeff @bezos. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/02/05/social-security-medicare-entitlements-reform/
Yes, Social Security and Medicare still need to be reformed — and soon

It's good news that entitlements won't be part of debt ceiling negotiations, but that doesn't mean the looming insolvency crisis shouldn't be addressed.

@froomkin Just curious: what's your thinking on how to keep Social Security and Medicare solvent in the coming years, with people living longer and the worker population not growing as fast as the retiree population?
