The govt. had no right to take the money from your pay to put into a ponzi scheme.
But you playing into the ponzi scheme and getting money out of it is wrong as well.

Sorry. I don’t have all the details about how much you have paid in or how long you have been drawing money out.

But I will tell you this, the person I spoke about earlier in the thread did not pay in as much as she has received. Most people on SSDI who do not die withing say 3 years have not paid in what they are taking out.

This isn’t like private insurance. With private insurance, I willingly pay into it. Take my chances as I see fit.

Taxpayers have no choice. We are forced to pay. Many of us know full well that many people are lying and getting into the money we are forced to give.

Think about it. It is not the same.
You need to go back and do some math. The system is a scam and is broke.

Hello!!!! Most people who file an INSURANCE CLAIM which is exactly what this is do not ever pay in what they received. It's called Risk Pool an insurance term. Want to shut down all insurance as well as they operate in this manner? If you think there is no such critter as mandatory you must buy insurance you are wrong. I can think of several more. Most everyone in all 50 states to drive a car must in fact purchase liability insurance. Granted we have no choice on SSDI nor do we to drive but I don't hear you complain about that.

I have already told you several times I'm for privatizing this program. I'm also for doing the same with SS retirement. But to do this it must be in such a manner where those who are already on it do not get hurt or cut off. It would not be right to do it in any other manner. IOW it will take at least a generation to do it.

There is insurance fraud in private insurance as well and yes indeed you pay for it as well as me. Workmans Comp is another mandatory insurance paid by employers. So is unemployment. Some how I bet even this answer draws a protest from you because you want it now and to heck with all involved.
