"So, they’ll provide for the people who didn’t provide for themselves. How? My SS benefits will be reduced to zero because I have a house, and money in the bank. This irritates me beyond words, but it will happen."

Join the crowd. I'm 35 and will never see a dime of all the money that has been confiscated from me. I think they should institute means testing, Grandma and Grandpa who have $4.5 million in the bank really don't need the monthly check do they??? So if I can pay in for decades and not see a dime, then they can pay in for decades and not see a dime either. Fair is fair. You won't see one salty tear in my eye if they start denying benefits to rich boomers.

Yep, that’s how they’ll present it. And then you’ll find out that if your retirement income is over $30k you make too much and you’ll be denied any of your money back. I’m 50 and not likely to get any of my money back, and I’ve been paying a long time. And a lot of money.
