[Smokin' Joe]

What was the question, anyway?

I am confident in the Social Security System.

I have been paying into it since I was 14, and I remain confident after all these decades that the money I paid in will never be paid back, that what is paid back will be in an inflated currency worth a fraction of what the currency I paid in was.

I am further confident that I have been screwed.

That means I am fairly confident in the system, too, just in a different and eminently more cynical way.

A large number of us feel the same way.
