So help me understand... You put your money in a bank for savings and somebody embezzles it

That's not what Social Security is. Social Security is a tax on income and an entitlement program only. It has nothing at all to do with savings.

You are wrong! IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH SAVINGS!

The money confiscated for the Social Security scheme directly impacts the life savings of every American citizen that is forced to pay into the system.

The return on investment if the money were saved in a bank or placed in work on investments would be far more in value that what the individual would get in return from the Social Security system in their remaining lifetime.

You bet your ass that it has something to do with savings...it ROBS citizens of their ability to save and invest because the “contribution” (it’s not call a tax for propaganda purposes) is ripped from their hands before they can save or invest it.
