Reagan seeks 10 percent Social Security cut by 1986
President Reagan proposes a 10 percent cut in Social Security benefits by 1986 to save the program from bankruptcy, pairing reductions with early retirement penalties and eventual payroll tax cuts. The plan targets roughly 53 billion in savings through disability and other benefit cuts, with 24 billion in 1986 alone, drawing fierce criticism from lawmakers and seniors’ advocates.
