True enough, but then again, If I managed to save and retire on a net worth of 10 million with 35% in cash holdings then I wouldn’t give a rats ass about collecting social security — whether I paid in or not.
Lets start means testing government retiree’s ... see how many really need that retirement payment.
If you manage to save that money you’re still entitled to the same benefits as others that paid for it in advance over decades of work. To argue the wealthy don’t need it can be used to tax the heck out of them now for the gibsmendat’s freebies (and that is exactly what is being done).
