social security was a program to add to a worker's savings for retirement age. never meant to be a sole retirement fund for workers, illegals, children on the dumb tax, and the slackers who draw disability and work cash jobs on the side...

social security is just like a cherry tree.... lots of cherries to be picked and it doesn't take long for a person to get back every penny they every paid in.....
