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 Social security is taken from their pay. So it is their money. The government gets to use it for years before they give some of it back. And Medicare is taken from their SS checks. So what they get is theirs. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85461918 This is incorrect. 1) Its a tax. There is no legal obligation to bay them anything. This was already confirmed by the supreme court in numerous cases 2) Its a ponzi scheme - the people who got the first payouts had paid nothing or little into the system. Current payment are made using money taken from others. Thier money was similarly stolen and distributed to others. 3) any surplus was loaded to the government - so not only do younger generations pay money in they will never get back - the also are taxed to pay back the loaned money with interest. 4) The system is already in collapse ( they don't even publish the disability number anymore because that fund is bankrupt) Even the Social Security Administration admits the system is done in 2036. ( The US Dollar itself will probably be done long before then - and your SS benefit -if you get any at all - won't buy a Mcy-D hamburger. ) "Their" money is gone - just as those who invested with Bernie lost their money. They aren't legally owed a dime. Anyone who thinks social security is a good idea is a moron and thief.
