Summary: "Sure you got screwed by the Social Security scam, but not as bad as you think. Pity the 25 year-old who's return can't possibly be in the positive territory."

The 'screwing' is due more to corrupt politicians than interest rates. If the original stated plan had been followed honorably, the money in the trust at this point would probably be incalculable.

Partially true. There still would be a problem due to the ever shrinking ratio of workers to retirees.

But that's water under the bridge. The money's gone. So what do we do now??
