What I said is true. You may have been told by your friends and by AARP that social security is a retirement plan but they were lying to you.

Go back and look at the legislation and Roosevelt's statements when he signed the bill. It's stated clearly: social security is insurance against job loss through disability, age, or death of the family's prime provider.

If you want to be angry at someone direct your anger at the people who lied to you, e.g., AARP.

We are both saying the same thing. AARP is just (ONE) of those who lied.
