I'm in favor of means testing social security (on a sliding scale between some minimum and some maximum, of course) and I'm in favor of raising the retirement age (an exception for manual laborers who can no longer work is fine with me), but I'd also be curious to hear how those two concepts amount to the same thing.

Sorry Joe. I'm flattered but I'm spending Saterday night alone with my wife. You'll have to find another. I'm curious as to why you come to this Chess site but haven't made a Chess move in a game in over 2 1/2 years. What's up with that??

It's self-evidently true - if people who can no longer work get benefits anyway, it does not matter whether or not they get retirement benefits.
