Pay Your Taxes

At a forum in Connecticut, an elderly man had some input:

"Social Security is unsustainable as a pay-as-you-go system," Lockhart said, assuring those attending that people over the age of 55 aren't going to be affected by the problems and proposed changes. Some of the solutions discussed during the forum included raising Social Security taxes, slowing the growth of benefits or increasing the rate of return on the Social Security's trust fund.

"I believe the solution to the problem will probably be a combination of these things," Shays said.

Although most in attendance remained calm during the discussion, an angry Trumbull man briefly disrupted the forum. "I don't give a damn," said Leo Adelson, who appeared to be in his late 80s. "People have to pay their taxes."
