Now those are the kinds of numbers I'm interested in hearing. Those numbers support SS being a chain letter pyramidding scheme. The sham really would be apparant if one can prove that it would be nearly impossible or impossible to get your contributions back. Seems to me if less half of participants actually get their contributions back, SS is and was a SCAM of gigantic proportions.

Another questions is how much of the SS revenue till gets skimmed by the bureaucracy "managing" the program?

You know whats going to happen. As they keep bumping up the retirement age to ridiculous levels, those between the ages of 55 and the new retirement age, who are jobless and can't collect their SS yet are going to become a political force to reckon with.
