They want those of us who are not out there making some rich asshole wealthier to die off so that they can stop spending a dime on anyone but themselves. They hate the fact that Social Security even exists, because it removes their ability to cull out those that they don't like or feel deserve to exist after they become useless to the oligarchs.
