It was under a Republican POTUS—Ronald Reagan—that SS benefits were subject to taxation, and the retirement age to receive full benefits was raised from 65 to 67 back when he signed the measure, based on the Alan Greenspan Commission’s recommendations, in 1983.

Reagan is dead; as long as he's not still collecting Social Security, he's now irrelevant. The emphasis should be on bringing those guilty people still alive to justice.
