The point isn't that it's politically impossible to get little changes passed. The point is that those are actually huge changes that only sound small out of context, and that seeing how hard they are to implement gives you an idea of how big they really are.
And those changes, by the way, still don't make it not-a-Ponzi-scheme. As long as you're playing a shell game with the money it's a Ponzi scheme, even if it currently appears indefinitely sustainable.
