Social Security benefits are not guaranteed. This isn’t my opinion. It is the opinion of the Supreme Court, Flemming V Nestor.
In its ruling, the Court held that entitlement to Social Security benefits is not a contractual right. Benefit levels are what Congress says that they are. The Social Security Administration recognizes the case. PolitiFact delivers research on it. Notch Babies provide evidence of it. There is no guarantee.

The piece looks at the specifics of the case, and how they affect you, your parents, and beneficiaries in general. Nestor sets an unusual precedent. Nestor was retired at the time that his benefits were reduced, and no longer participating in the Communist Party.
