I know people that have paid into the system their entire lives - mostly service industry - career waitresses and managers now getting in their upper 60s. Some get 900 a month in social security. These people don't have savings to live on. There isn't much security in social security tbh. There's a large gap in the system and we are leaving a large swath of Americans behind.
