Younger people are slowly adjusting to the fact that SS will look very different for them...

Randita, as a twenty-something, here's **my** expectation:

1. Social Security won't be there at all.

2. Some beneficiaries will vote for me to pay even higher taxes to pay their benefits.

Does this seem like an appropriate set of expectations?

That’s what I’m hearing from my young adult relatives. They are jaded about politics. They think politicians don’t care about them - only about getting re-elected and pandering to the folks who will donate to and vote for them.

I tell them that if their generation rose up in arms against the FSA (Free S*** Army), they might be able to shake and move the system, but they claim they’re too busy with their jobs and their families and it won’t make a difference anyhow.
