The scarier reality is the one they face in 10 years when they are forced to subsidize the lives of the boomers.
This seems to be a big point of contention with younger generations. I really don't blame them either. I felt like I was robbed when I saw this money being stolen out of my check for the first time...and every single time after that. This is one of the few opinions that have never changed since I was 16. Most of the rest of them have changed pretty dramatically.
Over the years that I've been signed up here, yours have too, SFP. 32 is a long way from 22 in the world of hard knocks.
I HATE SS. I'm 54. I say lets just do away with it. Now. But be fair when doing it. Just give me my money back and stop the theft. Cut me a check with interest and I'll be just fine. Just what was taken without my consent. Nothing more.
I'll be just fine.

the problem is that there is little money to "give back" because it's a welfare program and not an investment/savings program
that's the big lie
if it weren't a lie, then we could end SS/Medicare today and the programs would be able to fund the current retirees (because they "paid into the system"). however, the system would collapse if the money of the young wasn't stolen from them, which displays how it's nothing more than any other welfare program. it just hides its nature better (and the welfare recipients who suck the system via this program vote more often)
