“ Definitely a pyramid/Ponzi scheme. If the generation didn’t pay up, YOU’D not get your SS check.”
That’s also true of government bonds in your IRA, and any government program including defense delartment salaries and pensions for soldiers. If new tax money doesn’t keep flowing in, the checks will bounce. Social Security is no different
Well, yeah, I guess you could look at it that way. Government is a big Ponzi scheme forcing the citizens to fund them. Government does not generate its own income.
That’s OK with limited, constitutional government, submitted to the Constitution as the Rule of Law over government. But certainly not OK with the $3+ trillion 80%+ unconstitutional portion of the rogue and criminal feds we have now and which MUST be dismantled one way or the other.
