You don’t get it. US citizens ALREADY PAID for (SS) retirement. That money was STOLEN.
Usually in cases of criminal activity the perpetrators are found and put on trial, then sentenced.
Every former member of congress and former president needs to pay restitution to the SS fund... money they misappropriated.
Let’s first go after the estate of Ted Kennedy.
“Every former member of congress and former president needs to pay restitution to the SS fund... money they misappropriated.”
That’ll get you about $1B, what about the other $9.999T. You’ll feel good, but it won’t balance or pay off ANYTHING.
Restitution is only effective to the extent that the thieves have the money. THEY DON’T - and I guess the math is too tough for you to understand that.
It’s time you accept the fact that THE MONEY IS GONE and cannot be recovered.
The fact that you guys are going after the future earnings of MY KIDS and future grandkids, for the stupid policies of your generation (i.e., elect people that won’t pay for all their wonderful programs) MAKES ME SICK.
