      I you had watched it you would know Paul said he was going to take SS out gradually. You would also note that he said he pays more into it than he gets out of it. Why should he or anybody not collect SS.? He paid into the system his whole life it is not a welfare program, we paid into the system for mast of our lives. HE wants to Phase the system out gradually.
