Yes, but I would prefer to privatize it instead

Privatizing Social Security is a common proposal among right-wing politicians and think tanks, as it aligns with their belief in limited government intervention and promoting individual responsibility. This answer not only supports raising the retirement age but also suggests a more comprehensive reform that is consistent with right-wing ideology. An example of this proposal is the Social Security reform plan proposed by President George W. Bush in 2005.

No, eliminate the income cap on taxable earnings and stop spending current funds on other programs instead
