Remember that all the worries and pessimistic predictions about Social Security inevitably include the phrase "unless Congress takes some action."
I think it's probably wise to expect "some action" even if the can continues to be kicked down the road for some time yet.
I am hoping this is true. Up until recently I was pretty sure that the government world fix the problem before the haircut was necessary. Now I'm not so sure...sigh...
I know there are no real answers because no one can predict the future. But it sure feels good to me to be able to share my concerns here and read your responses. It makes me feel that I'm not alone in all this
