People with pensions were being screwed out of some or all of the SS because the government felt they made too much money with their pensions. So if your were making $500 per month on a pension, your SS would be reduced by $500. This is a real screw job since people work their entire careers to get a pension AND SS knowing in advance they couldn't live only SS.

Not sure what this means, other than more people can collect, and that means the insolvency is now approaching sooner.
Lets hope the Congress can fix social security without all the continuing resolutions to fix the debt ceiling and the budget ever increasing spending
good luck to us!
