Republicans would rather let social security die, than agree to any logical solutions. All the ways this could be fixed will be called Socialism by the Republicans
The solution really is vote out as many Republicans as possible for the rest of this decade. Don't let them have enough power in government to hinder efforts to fix Social Security. They won't cut benefits themselves because they know that would get them voted out in the very next election. But they absolutely would be willing to stall long enough that automatic cuts kick in because that's easier to blame on the Democrats.
