Social Security and Medicare are no longer safety nets for the vulnerable. They are the biggest middle class entitlements in history. What would I do? I would start by indexing the onset of benefits to average US life expectancy. That's how the program was originally designed, but the age wasn't indexed, it was set at a fixed age (65), which was the average life expectancy at the time. If we did that, our structural budget problems would disappear.
