Opt out of receiving it, or opt out of paying for it? If you make enough money you already don't qualify to receive either, so I can only assume it was the latter.

Opt out of receiving it. And yes, I think they do make you take SS and Medicare, even if you are wealthy and don't need it. I could be wrong though. But I think that's what they were saying. Everyone still has to pay in.
