If so many 'want it' then it should be easy to eliminate it, as all they have to do is amend the US Constitution, easy to do, right?
'Amendments may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate; or by a convention to propose amendments called by Congress at the request of two-thirds of the state legislatures. To become part of the Constitution, an amendment must then be ratified by either"as determined by Congress"the legislatures of three-quarters of the states or by ratifying conventions conducted in three-quarters of the states, a process utilized only once thus far in American history with the 1933 ratification of the Twenty-First Amendment. The vote of each state (to either ratify or reject a proposed amendment) carries equal weight, regardless of a state's population or length of time in the Union.'

Sitting pretty here being retired with my military retirement pay and SocSec plus my 10 years younger wife still bringing in earned income. Life is GOOD : )
