Yes,
Social Security is a welfare program.
Designed to pay more for the “poor”. As you make more money, you benefits grow proportionally less and less.
If you pay little bit into the system, you get paid up to 90% of you income, but if you worked all life in private industry, you end up getting only 15%!
People, who worked government, and get their gov. pensions, but also worked in private a little bit, would get the “poor” 90% SS a top of their gov pensions.
So they would get the SS Windfall. the huge benefit designed for the poor a top of their rich gov pensions.
So this provision was designed to make their benefits, as if they worked all the time at one institution.

Obviously, Biden gift to his faithful gov. workers.
Or, rather, the deep state getting themself a raise!

You husband got what we are getting, now, he is getting a lot more! Is it fair for us, the ordinary folks, who never worked in government?!

” As you make more money, you benefits grow proportionally less and less.”

Where on earth did you get that? As you pay more in, you get more out. And it is not welfare.
