I mean the old that paid for the elderly when they were young.

You don’t think the money taken out of your paycheck is sitting in an account waiting on you to take it out, do you?

Taking money from one group to redistribute it to another group is welfare. End of discussion. I’m sorry that fact makes you upset.

And you'll be lining up to collect that welfare when you hit the appropriate age, taken from the younger generation of workers.

Still welfare. I’m sorry that pisses you off.




Btw. Social security won’t exist in 30 years when I reach “withdrawal” age.

Well Hegseth announced we’re creating a “Great North America” area consisting of everything from the Canal Zone to Alaska to Greenland and back down to Guyana.

The WEF for years has been trying to move towards a unified government for Canada, America and Mexico called the “North American Union” to mirror the EU.
quote:

The North American Union (NAU) is a theoretical economic and political continental union of Canada, Mexico and the United States, the three largest and most populous countries in North America. The concept is loosely based on the European Union, occasionally including a common currency called the amero or the North American Dollar.


I’m not suggesting Trump is enacting their program for the same reasons, but I sure as hell didn’t expect to see Trump push for a similar project.

Hegseth: Great America Zone
North American Union

Do you plan on taking your welfare when the time comes if you haven’t already?

It is when you insinuate that Social Security is welfare and therefore a problem, then you'll turn right around and collect Social Security.

It won’t exist when it’s my time to get it so…..

We don’t have the birth rate to have a stable population to pay for the ever increasing healthcare cost of the ever growing percentage of the population that can withdrawal.

The age will be increased to 75-80 and taxes will have to massively increase to pay for it.

The system needs to be completely and totally destroyed.

Oh look! Downvoters who don’t understand how social security works and that it is quite literally textbook definition of a welfare program

Is Cambridge Dictionary a good enough textbook?

define welfare

Close, but not quite.

Socialistic, yes.
Welfare, not exactly.

Yep. Sure fits the definition.

This is the point where the CATO article on this is posted that points out more US citizens use welfare per capita than immigrants, but conveniently doesn't break out demographics when calculating those numbers.


This is the point where I tell you that even that CATO article, the one from 2023 I take it, explains how immigrants with refugee status pretty much get it at 100%. In the context of the meme posted in the OP, this would most definitely fall into that category. Recent findings, after CATO released the article, finds that CATO is wrong on many things. Somalis are still getting welfare at a clip of approx 70% of the population even after the seven years has come and gone by several years.
