You think they're mad, literally my whole life they've been predicting that Social Security is going to go broke the day I retire. I'm sure it's true, I am not counting on it at all. But I will pay into it every single day of my working life for the priveledge of not seeing a dime back. At least millenials will get a break in 15 years when it collapses.

Of course at some point the government will probably come for the 401Ks to keep it going for another couple of months and there goes all my years of planning. But what can I do about that? Nothin',

It is predicted to go broke when I turn 62, give or take a year, so I echo your thoughts. I am expecting, should I have a buck or two in the bank and some assets at that time, being told "no Social Security for you" and to come back when I'm dead broke with tin cup in hand.

Those who never bothered to save because they would rather have "stuff" and have it now, and spent their time partying and shooting out babies they couldn't afford will be given what I worked for and was forced to pay over.

I have not the words for the anger.
