Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85325960 You didn’t pay crap and now you want the next generation pay for all your shits? DieThis is America!! Lefties! Die!! Commie cong~ Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85188299 Let's see. I started paying into my Social Security "ACCOUNT" in 1966. It was NEVER meant to be a SAVINGS ACCOUNT like everyone was led to believe.
If it had been, all they would have had to do is legislate that BANKS open "savings accounts" for every worker.
If that had been the case, every cent that I HAD to contribute from every single paycheck, (Social Security deductions were NOT optional) would have been earning compound interest.
So, when I started drawing MY MONEY OUT, it would have been a COLOSSAL amount of dough, accumulated over a half century.
Instead it was taken from ME and given out immediately, and in later years was stolen and given out to people who never worked a day in their lives.
In ANY case the money I paid in was GONE with nothing left but an IOU. A promise to pay me a certain amount every month. Some people, like my mother, who worked her whole life, paid in her whole life, died at 61 years old, and didn't get one red cent back. Some people who lived long lives got MORE than they paid in.
That's REALITY.
If you want TPTB to renege on that "promise", go for it. The whole shitting mess is going to collapse soon anyway.
