SS was passed in 1935. The case as to whether it was Constitutional came to SCOTUS in 1937. The Helvering vs Davis decision found that it was Constitutional, only because it was collected as a Tax, and sent directly into the General Fund, not for any specific cause, but for the funding of whatever Congress decided to fund.Th Constitution,...as written,....never provided for Social Security of Medicare either........Yet, I will bet the Proverbial dollars to Doughnuts,....that many Constitutional Scholars will take both the Social Security check....and the free Medicare.....

We, as voters, make our case to our representatives as to our views/morality. That’s the 1st Amendment, Redress of Grievance. Once Congress decides, we live with those laws, or organize a campaign to change the law.... Just as The Butch Davis Proposal. We make our voices heard for or against now, and let Congress decide our fate. Again, it’s only my opinion, but I expect- IF, Anything is done, it’ll be a Bailout of the PBGC, not or making us whole. And, personally, I don’t understand why canary and Crystal are so involved in this one. Both of your funds don’t qualify for the Grants. This Proposal seems almost custom designed for only the CSPF, per the Pension Rights Center.
