So kholt, are you recommending that the 'kid' you made up, should just do as he/she is told, and put money into the SS system as it is now configured.

Maybe something will be there at the end.

Maybe not.

I would venture to say that IF Roosevelt hadn't made it mandatory that all of us have money deducted/confiscated from our paychecks over the years, and put into the SS system, that we would not have done it voluntarily.

The smarter ones of us would have put that money into some sort of investment that hopefully would have produced some income over the years to use in our retirement.

The dumb ones of us would have bought new cars, trips, flashy jewelry, and who knows what else, and had nothing to show for it when they retired.

Choices, Choices......
