Let's see what the level of support is.

79% support keeping SS, 17% oppose

Question asked was  "On the whole, do you think it should or should not be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly?" in a recent CBS poll.

Not a biased question at all.

Dazzleman,

If Nixon hadn't raised the benefits we'd be seeing people get a negative return after inflation already.  That's how flawed the structure of the program is.  There's just no defense of social security as it operates today that doesn't rest on a mountain of delusion and/or deceit.
