    Since the 30s, the lower 50% boomer earners are living about 1.8 years longer now compared to 6.5 years longer for the upper 50%.  The upper 50% include those high earners who cap out at $106,800 and pay much less of a social security percentage.  So, increasing the retirement age is grossly unfair for the lower ranks unless the current cap is lifted also.
