EVERYBODY gets old. Even you. And no, simple math tells you that not all citizens (even hard-working ones) can possibly save enough for a self-funding life after they no longer are working. We are NOT ever going back to a complete dog-eat-dog way of life short of anything less than a complete meltdown. Thand the Gods for that, at least.
Social security is NOT the problem. The problem is the increasingly feudal nature of our society. A problem compounded immensely by the fact that the new ' nobles' are mostly complete and utter scumbags. Look at the data about percentage of wealth owned by the various social cohorts and see how drastically it has changed, just over the past 50 years. And then tell me that is a great thing.
Libertarians are seriously deranged, imao. And ao opinion or not, I'm sticking with it.
