Maybe you are being sarcastic but in case your are not...

You did not “contribute” and you will not “take out”.

You were taxed and you will receive.

You were taxed to pay others and now others will be taxed to pay you. It is a straight up income transfer scheme no more no less.

[[It is a straight up income transfer scheme no more no less.]]

Thast’s true- but it’s one I think most Americans are pretty ok with as they are mroea than willing to provide help for thsoe that need it- and don’t really so much mind SS beign taken out (sure soem grumble, but most udnerstand that if htere coems a tiem when htey need it, it will be there for them, if not, then what they pay in will go toward helpign someone else who needs it)

What msot Americans don’t liek however is helpign thsoe who apply for disability simply because they can’t fidn a job- thsoe folsk are bilkign the system and puttign a trememdous strain on the fund, nor do they necessarily like the idea of soem of the conditiosn covered under dissability beign covered while thsoe with true disabilities are often denied
