Maybe I look at this differently because I came from outside. When I started working down here no one asked me did I want SS, they just took a big chunk oof money from my paycheck and called it FICA. When I asked about it I was told it is a contract with the government and they will pay you when you retire. (The did not but insisted that I take it at 65 even though I worked until I was 73.) Some "contract" where congress can change the fine print any time they feel like it.
The balance of my income is from a pension from where I worked in Canada. So the taxpayer can breath easy - until the next time Congress decides to screw them over.
