Where do Whigs stand on Social Security?

Unlike most parties and political organizations we do not just spout out a policy based off of an ideology, we work differently. We are currently going researching policy options and proposals in our Whig Roundtables which will be launched soon. This will put forth policy ideas that have been researched and debated and found to be effective policies to keep Social Security established to be there in some way, shape, or form for future generations.

Most Whigs would tell you that they think Social Security needs to be reformed by making sure that the government stops dipping into its funds for other needs. Also, it will most likely need to be reformed because the number of workers supporting those drawing Social Security has changed since it was designed, it is all based on population ratios. Also, means testing should be initiated to make sure that those who really need Social Security are getting while those who don't are not. Tough decisions need to be made but these decisions need to be made to make sure Social Security exists to help out and supplement personal retirement and pension savings.
