Michael,

The social security system is oppressive and de-humanizing.
I wish the government would return my contributions and
give me nothing in the future. I get sick when I hear
politicians say let's save social security. Let's destroy
it. I should be responsible for my own retirement. If
I'm not responsible, then if need be, I should be thrown
on the streets to starve. But, humanity should always have
that choice, that freedom. The freedom to invest my money
on my own. Not to have a politician take my money and tell
me I should vote for him because he's going to give it
back to me or "protect" me by returning what's rightfully
mine after squandering my money in U.S Treasuries for 30
years! Let's give tax dollars back to the people who earn
them. And enough, of these politicians who take our money
and then tell us how great they are for "protecting" us.


John
