Its well documented that the number of people who will get SS plateau's at the point the scare mongers claim it will have to reduce benefits, then it actually declines back to levels we currently have.

A simple raising of the cap will be sufficient to get it past that plateau, and keep it solvent indefinitely after that, but you'll never hear the politicians (in either party) mention that since they really would prefer to just start the trust fund over without paying back the trillions they've already spent.
