If you were prepared for it then you should know better than to call SS anything but welfare.

Yeah, I figured you’d come up with something like that. Do you also think contracts when broken are no big deal? If you don’t think much beyond what’s for supper you don’t understand that those who never paid into the system, those who have lived off the largesse of others for generations, and those who scam the system with fake or contrived disabilities with complicity of a socialistic government are why the system failed. If the SS system had been run as an "insurance" as it was originally called it would be in fine shape just as the system in Galveston county is.

It’s not the baby boomer generation that ruined the system. That generation by and large consisted of hard workers who paid into the system for a lifetime and didn’t use the system until retirement. It was and is the generations since who have learned to scam the system.
