I think that's filter bubble speaking. People who aren't ideologically in favor of entitlements would likely be mildly for or against. People who are ideologically against entitlements would consider it a good thing.

I feel like even people who don't care much about ideology care a great deal about how much they, personally, are going to be paid.

Especially if they amount they're going to be paid is going from $LOTS to zero.

Soon-to-be recipients stand to lose out on tens of thousands of dollars from SS cuts. I think this would skew the normal distribution of ideological views you are imagining far more than you think.

Don’t think this is “filter bubble” as I don’t interact with many Gen Xers and the ones I do likely skew skeptical of SS.
