If I were in a position to receive a SS check, I would also cash it.
And I would also feel no guilt.
However, if someone told me that the nation should cancel SS because it’s a Ponzi scheme, I would agree with them, and I would vote to kill it and take away my check.
I would also vote to do away with it. But only after all the welfare queens and overpaid retired government deadheads are trimmed back. They never paid in dime one.
