<<SS could buy out my account right now by giving me half of what I'd paid in in tax-free cash. I'd then be out of the system, no liable to pay any more in, or receive any benefits in the future.>> I'd vote for that. As it stands now, SS is practically serving as a disincentive to work, particularly for a self-employed person. Just gimme my money (or even some of it) and I promise the Social Security Administration staff will never hear from me again and can forget I ever existed.
