Default Social Security Means Test

I was reading recently in The Washington Post that there is now a move being put forward by fiscal conservatives regarding Social Security retirement payments.

The idea is to require a yearly "means test" that will adjust Social Security retirement annually based on other income such as company pensions as well as the amounts of assets a person has in the form of house, car, investments, and other assets.

This would, proponents say, reduce the national debt.
