shifting the risk to retirees??? oh really???

I have already pointed out in a previous post
that SS benefits are not 'guaranteed'.
This was decided by the Supreme Court in 1960.

In *fact*, your so-called 'guaranteed' SS benefit
is totally up to the whim of Congress at the time
you retire... i.e., no 'guarantee' at all!

You don't perceive the *current* system as being 'risky'???
I think private accounts *reduce* the risk
to the individual.
