social security is a ponzi scheme and a rip off. my wife passed away suddenly several years ago after contributing to the system for years; the pay back a lousy 30 cents on the dollar.
if social security had remained as envisioned; supplemental (not intended to be only retirement) retirement income it would be solvent today. today’s retirees are getting far more out of the system than they paid in.
are we going to leave our children a bankrupt country?
