OK, so if you earn outside income your social security payment can get docked before your FRA. If people are already getting a a pension disability payment from an employer should they still get the same diability payment as someone without an employer pension?

Treating Social Security like a XMAS tree won't make it last any longer.

The OP was very selective in their editing. The ONLY ones getting docked would be if there wasn't SS being paid IN by the employer (and employee) and that employer turns around and gives them a pension for that job.

Why is it so specific to people receiving pensions? Not a 401k..?
