I think you are making Sunshine’s point. There is no pot of money and SS is a ponzi scheme. Once the boomers (who collectively make the most money) stop earning, who’s money will keep the system afloat. The non-boomers simply don’t have the productive capability, especially as America continues it’s socialist suicide, to keep the system solvent. Once the boomers stop paying in, it’s game over for SS.
I understand there is no pot of money. What gripes me is the way
the “boomers” are tarred as the bad guys when they have shouldered
the majority of money that has beed paid into social security. A very
small number of them have just reached the point of being eligible for
receiving any benefits. A few may get a fraction of the money that was
confiscated from them. I expect to be deprived of most of what was
confiscated from me. Politicians are thieves. The unproductive leech class living off government largess are their enablers.
