And therein lies the problem. How can a people become dependent upon a system that has stolen from generations and yet is now empty? The system needs to be scrapped as it was a monstrosity the day it was first proposed. Why should we trust the system if it has shown time after time that it cannot be trusted adn continues to break the Constitutional restraints that have held tyranny at bay thus far?
But you can see the real problem — Millions of Seniors are dependent on the social security checks. And they all can vote.
People dependent on government, who get to vote for the people who decide on those dependencies. They vote to protect the money they depend on. If the democrats succeed in getting 51% of the people hooked on government handouts, our government will fall as the majority keeps voting themselves more and more money.
