0170188 - > Social security benefits per household average less than half of median household income. Don't omit Medicare: Typical married retiree couple receives ~$36,500 SS and ~ $37,800 Medicare. So ~$74,300 /yr of benefits that young ppl must fund. Median household makes $87,460.Rick Esenberg @RickEsenbergI'm not denying the numbers. I just don't think that they are intrinsically outrageous.

That's why this is a hard problem. I wish people on both sides would stop pretending it isn't.81337710.7K
