Calling SS an entitlement really pisses me off. Working for thirty plus years and contributing my hard earned money....it Burns me using that word.
It's a Ponzi scheme. Intellectually you know this is true but you are in denial. You are not alone. Reality is bitch and sometimes it is ok to delude yourself. The problem is when people delude themselves on a public web site.
SS like unemployment is an entitlement. The more you pay in, the more you get. It’s always been called an entitlement by the Feds. It’s not welfare. One doesn’t earn welfare benefits.
