I do think SS payments should be tied to recipients incomes, in some way. Starting now. If you make $300K in income, why are you receiving SS payments? You don’t need them.

To take the conservative side of the argument, it’s at least partially your money that you paid in. I get the principle, but than again the extra 1K/month would not buy a decent suit for the truly rich so they won’t miss it as much as someone needs it to keep food on the table.
