Your post makes no sense. Reagan raised it to 67 and the current GOP is discussing raising it to 69. Whether or not "It's talked about every couple of years" doesn't change the facts I posted. I can only guess you think if you post "No" it magically changes the facts. And the facts that you seem to be trying to change is that its Reagan who raised the retirement age and its the republicans discussing doing it again.
The chairman of the House Ways and Means Social Security Subcommittee, Rep. Sam Johnson, R-Texas, has introduced legislation to make changes in Social Security, including raising the retirement age.
The Social Security Reform Act of 2016 would gradually update the full retirement age at which workers can claim benefits. It would raise the age to 69 for those who qualify for "early retirement age" after Dec. 31, 2029.

I'm not trying to change the facts. Yeah, I know it was changed. What I'm saying is that it is discussed by both parties over the years.
