I am over 70, most of my friends are over 70, my wife is over 70, and I do not know a single person that did not vote for Trump. Guess my crowd are just weird maga supporters who love Trump.

Not surprising that the generation that fricked the country and stacked the deck against all other generations hates the guy that’s trying to fix the shite.
Boomers are collectively the worst generation in history. Sure there are exceptions but as a whole they fricking suck.

Or worried they won’t see their portfolios rebound before they need the money.

I'm a boomer and love Trump.

I don't get the boomer hate or some on here saying anyone over 70. It just seems lazy. These are your parents and grandparents most likely. I know tons of boomers who are as MAGA as can be, including my parents. In fact, none of the boomers I know hate Trump.

Because they believed the lying media about cutting social security..
Because it HAS to happen.
It’s fricking insolvent. It’s billions in the red every year and the gap is only going to get worse considering the birth rate, and ratio of those paying into and those receiving benefits.
It’s a mother fricking Ponzi scheme and always has been.
A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment scam where returns to existing investors are paid from money contributed by new investors, rather than legitimate profits from the investment itself. It's essentially a fraudulent pyramid where the scheme collapses when the flow of new investors dries up
Huh. Would you look at that. The money paid out to those receiving benefits didn’t come from their own investments. It comes from new investments from the young.
Without an ever growing supply of new meat paying into the system, IT COLLAPSESSSSSS
End social security today. Free us of this bullshite burden we are paying into that will not exist when we reach befit age.

Meh. I'm 31 and am pretty confident it will exist when I'm 65. It's suicide for politicians to let it die. I don't like it but I don't see SS going anywhere

It will not. If it does exist by that time, the age will not be 65 but 75 or 80.
Also your 7% is going to need to AT A MINIMUM double.

And once the boomers are mostly dead it will start to stabilize again.
And also tell me what politician will let SS go away? It'll get bailed out for a lot less than what we blow on foreign aid and defense budget.

No it won’t. Cost of care is ever increasing and birth rate (number of new people paying into) is going down.

Hopefully someone with balls since Americans are fricking retarded and think that money is put into a little savings account for them to receive later.

Social security and Medicare/medicaid are over 50% of our budget. They are not sustainable.
The reasons why it is not fixable is because of the “buh buh buh I paidddd! I want muh money!”
Bitch your money was spent the day you paid it. Your money doesn’t exist. It’s gone.
It is a sunk cost.
The sooner Americans wake up and realize we have been lied to and we kill this white elephant of a social program that is not and will never again be in the green.

It has become that due to congress can't help themselves to other people's cash. We should have (long ago) set up IRA accounts for people and have them manage it themselves.
