Only if we let the GOP and MAGAts control the narrative and make people not understand that minor reforms can make it feasible for DECADES longer than the projected 2035 at current funding rates. But people are stupid and greedy, which is (one reason) why the GOP still has as much power as they do.

The cliff has been looming for decades, and neither party has done a damn thing about it. It's fine if you want to blame the MAGA circus, but the truth is that no politician is going to do a damn thing until we hit a point of no return. The solutions are incredibly simple, but they all start with raising taxes, so no party is even going to bother.
