I'd add a clarifying tip to this. It was designed to reap the benefits of continual growth, but falls apart as soon as the growth slows down faster than the benefits are handed out. This was a clear win for those who never put anything into it at the beginning, similar to a ponzi scheme.

Solutions: Increase the age, IE: (Hopefully enough people will die off that they won't get anything + for those who live they get fewer payments.) decrease the payouts, increase taxes or kill the program.
