Veterans pensions..... not the same as other benefits (entitlements).
But SocSec is not that. It is a redistribution, goverment enrichment and populace control program. Nothing more or less. We all get sucked into supporting it because “I paid into it”.

Thank you for seeing socialized security for what it is. The low earners get back all they paid in, plus much more. Those that work the hardest will not get back what they were forced to pay in, and will be the first ones cut when the gov. realizes the system is broke.
(This is for those retiring at 67 and paying in the max for 10+ years, any other situations I don’t have the calculations at hand. I just did the numbers for my husband, who wanted to see if he needed to keep working until 67 for SS benefits. Haha, there is NO point to his working 17 more years and supporting this fascist government. He would pay in close to $175k and only receive $50k more if he lives to 83. Oh, and that doesn’t include what his employer pays into the system on his behalf!)
America needs to wake up and realize how they are being screwed.
