What? 15% of my wages? Damn right I'm entitled to them - I earned them after all.

I have paid the same 15% of earned wages for many years and I won't get a penny for all that.

Wake up. You're not entitled to a G--Damned thing except what you can legally hold in your hand.

If you were "entitled" to more you'd be the first generation in a century do be so blessed. Which has been my point all along.

If you can't recognize the fact that the government has stolen your money, that's your problem, not mine.

Might makes right, eh? You'd better get it into your head that not every law is aligned with the concept of rights and/or principles. Just because the government takes 15% against my will, doesn't mean I wasn't entitled to it in the first place.

Tell that to the folks who lived here pre-FDR. You may not realize it, but SS is a fairly recent institution.
