Many Americans rely on Social Security benefits to see them through retirement, but how much should they really be depending on those checks?
Not very much, experts said.
Social Security is not being used as it was intended, said Ric Edelman, executive chairman and co-founder of Edelman Financial Services in Fairfax, Va. and author of “The Truth about Your Future.” When Congress and President Franklin D. Roosevelt created the system in 1933, the program was designed to be a safety net for Americans — for those who had no financial support. Now, “a great many Americans are relying heavily on Social Security to maintain their lifestyle in retirement.”
More than 66 million people received Social Security and/or Supplemental Security Income in August, more than 46 million of which were Americans 65 and older. Social Security makes up a majority of cash income for 61% of elderly beneficiaries, and a third rely on this benefit for 90% or more of their income, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a governmental budget policies think tank based in Washington, D.C. The average monthly retirement benefit under the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance was $1,326, according to the Social Security Administration.
Retired workers received an average of $1,371 while spouses of retired workers received $714 and children of retired workers received $659. “Social Security is funding as last resort, and if it goes away there is no government program to serve as a fall back,” Edelman said. “This is the fall back.”
How did Americans get here?
Unfortunately, it’s a familiar story: many Americans just haven’t saved enough for retirement, either because of poor planning or an inability to put money away for their futures.

WELL, HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN ACTS 10?
I bolded the salient passages......Peter, I believe qualifies as a disciple and apostle. In Acts 10, Peter is told by GOD to do something contrary to the Torah and Peter recoils at the idea of disobeying the Torah laws.......GOD says, "What God hath cleansed, [that] call not thou common.16<1161>
...............................................
ACTS 10
Cornelius Sends for Peter
1<1161> There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian [band], 2[A] devout [man], and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much almsto the people, and prayed to God alway. 3He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the dayan angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius. 4And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come upfor a memorial before God. 5And now send men to Joppa, and call for [one] Simon, whose surname is Peter: 6He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee whatthou oughtest to do. 7And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually; 8And when he had declared all [these] things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.
Peter's Vision
(Leviticus 11:1-47; Deuteronomy 14:1-21)
9<1161> On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went upupon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: 10And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, 11And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: 12Where in were all manner of four footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 13And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. 14But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. 15And the voice[spake] unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, [that] call not thou common.16<1161> This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
Peter Summoned to Caesarea
17Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate, 18And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.19While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. 20Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them. 21Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what [is] the cause wherefore ye are come? 22And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a justman, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee. 23Then called he them in, and lodged [them]. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
Peter at Caesarea
24And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends. 25And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped [him]. 26But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. 27And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together. 28And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man commonor unclean. 29Therefore came I [unto you] without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
30And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in myhouse, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing, 31And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God. 32Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of [one] Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. 33Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
The Gentiles Hear the Good News
34Then Peter opened [his] mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:35But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. 36The word which [God] sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:) 37That word, [I say], ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee,after the baptism which John preached; 38How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghostand with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; forGod was with him. 39And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews,and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree: 40Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly; 41Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, [even] to us,who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead. 42And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God [to be] the Judge of quick and dead.43To him give all the prophets witness,
The Gentiles Receive the Holy Spirit
(Joel 2:28-32; John 14:15-26; John 16:5-16; Acts 2:1-13; Acts 19:1-7) 44While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. 45Andthey of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. 46For they heard them speak withtongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 48And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
King James Bible with Strong's Numbers
.
Again you prove in spades your ignorance of basic Bible truths.
What God clensed in Acts 10 is people, not foods.
Peter himself provided that interpretation, so do not dismiss it. Peter was made to know that he could call no man unclean, and to a Jew that is monumental; the Pharisees treated all as unclean.
And finally, Believing in Yeshua is not intellectual belief. Paul and John stated that fact well. Believing in him is living as he lived and forgiving as he forgave.
If you reject his laws, you are living as his enemies live.

I answered:
WELL, HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN ACTS 10?
Go back and see my original post where the following verse was bold!!!!!
Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but
BUT your pathetic misdirection is laughable.......again YOU'RE caught in YOUR own theological Barbed wire!!!!!
Your original claim was, that the Apostles ALL FAITHFULLY followed the Torah.....
Your many pious words, some BIBLE quotes, adherence to Jeremiah but failing to understand the context, dismissing the pre-trib catching away of Saints, saying white Europeans are Israelis, holding your nose in the air religiosity is a smokescreen to cover total ignorance and stiff neck inability to learn! YOU'RE nothing but a parrot for your cult.
Even satan can quote from scripture but just like YOURS, they are twisted blasphemous quotes! _____________________________________________________
Let me address the parable of the ten virgins.
The Parable of the Ten Virgins you dismiss as the pre-trib catching away of Saints.....here's the BIBLE quote:
" 1At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take along any extra oil. 4But the wise ones took oil in flasks along with their lamps. 5When the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
6At midnight the cry went out: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
7Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
9‘No,’ said the wise ones, ‘or there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
10But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom arrived. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, and the door was shut.
11Later, the other virgins arrived and said ‘Lord, Lord, open the door for us!’
12But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’
13Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
NOTICE THE CONTEXT: At that time the kingdom of HEAVEN ...... NOT the kingdom, which YESHUA offered to Israel during his earthly ministry.
Israel was looking for an earthly kingdom, they rejected the offer, and now have to go thru Daniel's seventh week. However, those that are washed in the blood of YESHUA have a better place promised to them, The Kingdom of Heaven.
ALSO NOTICE the reference to YESHUA "as the bridegroom!" .....NOT THE KING of kings!
A bridegroom loves his bride and wants shower the bride with love. As THE KING of kings YESHUA will rule with a rod of iron.....not as a vindictive king but his subjects will obey, like it or not!!
FINALLY NOTICE: 13"Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.". ....the catching away of the faithful virgins, is a total surprise, even to the foolish virgins! They believe there is time to resupply their oil (HOLY SPIRIT ). The end of the seven year tribulation is a fix time that will be known...even to you!
.
You struck out again.
Acts 10 nhas absolutely nothing to do with Torah.
Why do you reject Peter’s interpretation?
Yes, the disciples and apostles did follow Torah totally, and taught others to do so.
That is what the Acts is all about; teaching the lost sheep how to achieve Yehova’s righteousness by hearing Moses read in their synagogue every Sabbath day (Acts 15)
>> “THEN HOW COULD PETER FAITHFULLY followed the Torah and enter the house of a Gentile?” <<
Read Peter’s interpretation of Acts 10 again until it sinks in!
Yehova made all men clean when his sinless son paid their debt with his sinless blood.
That is why he removed the temple. It no longer had any purpose.
.
.
P.S.
Yeshua’s bride will return with him to rule in the millenium.
And the trib is 42 months, just as the word plainly says.
It begins in about 41 months.
You have much studying to do. You don’t even know how to recognize the Appointed Times!
.
" You struck out again.
Acts 10 nhas absolutely nothing to do with Torah.
Why do you reject Peter’s interpretation?
Yes, the disciples and apostles did follow Torah totally, and taught others to do so. .......another one of your JELLO argument ....Acts 10 Clearly says ," it is not lawful for a Jew to enter a Gentile's home. Are you missing that?? Was that Roman law or Jewish law???
That is what the Acts is all about; teaching the lost sheep how to achieve Yehova’s righteousness by hearing Moses read in their synagogue every Sabbathhow to achieve Yehova’s righteousness by hearing Moses read in their synagogue every Sabbath day (Acts 1 day (Acts 15) ........You must be a lunatic to see that in Acts 15. It's the exact opposite, saying even the Jews couldn't keep the law perfectly. That is the standard for righteousness. ......keeping the law of Moses PERFECTLY...year after year. YOU can't do it, never will, no how no way!....see the following where Peter admitted these men could not keep the law.....in fact Peter called it an unbearable yoke ....and who were these people who, like you, want to bind up, tie up, depress a believer, why of course..... there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them.
Bible > KJV > Acts 15
The Dispute over Circumcision
1And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. 2When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question. 3And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren. 4And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
The Council at Jerusalem.
5But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
6And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter. 7And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. 8.
12Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
13And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:14Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name. 15And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
16After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
17That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
>> “THEN HOW COULD PETER FAITHFULLY followed the Torah and enter the house of a Gentile?” <<
Read Peter’s interpretation of Acts 10 again until it sinks in!
Yehova made all men clean when his sinless son paid their debt with his sinless blood. ....not true, ALL men are not cleansed....the debt of every sinner is only paid, if they accept YESHUA as their savior, as the son of GOD the Father!
That is why he removed the temple. It no longer had any purpose. . Again you're in error......YESHUA said in "Matthew 23:38" 35That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. 36Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. 37O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! 38Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 39For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
YESHUA rejected Israel because they failed to see, he was Yeshua HaMashiach, in English is Jesus the Messiah.

You’re just spouting the same old “inherited lies” that have been refuted thousands of times.
What the Pharisees called “The law of Moses” was their own nonsensical false laws. That was the “Burden that could not be borne.”
Yeshua demolished every one of their Takanot and Ma’assim in his 70 week Earthly ministry.
You can cling to the lies, or you can cling to the Word of Yehova. They are 180 degrees apart.
Torah is your only source for the required Garment for the Wedding Feast.
.
.
P.S.
There is no Temple!
There is no sacrifice!
Why are you all hung up on what ceased in AD 68?
.
And the trib is 42 months, just as the word plainly says.
.......What about the segment called the GREAT tribulation?..... You have much studying to do.
It begins in about 41 months. Wellll, that's interesting....several days ago you said the end will come in Fall of 2024.....and now you say it starts in 41 months....SO you don't believe in a SEVEN year tribulation, of two 3.5 yr segments.
You have much studying to do. You don’t even know how to recognize the Appointed Times! ........ I'll let the stupidity of the totality your posts speak for themselves.
SO, another Moses went up to another biblical Mount Sinai to give you a special rule book and I guess this new rule book also prohibited pork, circumcision, Sabbath (Saturday) worship, going into a Gentile's house, honor you mother and father, etc.....now I get it! When did these NEW rules appear? It must have been right after the crucifixion. Bbbut, then why did Jews continue Temple worship until 70AD?
Yeshua demolished every one of their Takanot and Ma’assim in his 70 week Earthly ministry. Wow, and here I thought YESHUA said, " Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets;
I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.
You can cling to the lies, or you can cling to the Word of Yehova. They are 180 degrees apart. Geee, I wish you'd tell me where to obtain this new rule book.....since I can't seem to find one on Amazon.com.
Torah is your only source for the required Garment for the Wedding Feast. ........ So, now there's a uniform required. Here I thought YESHUA would cloth me!
Please don't tell me the Mormon magic underpants are required!!
.
To call you a Biblical illiterate moron would be praise.
>> “then why did Jews continue Temple worship until 70AD?” <<
They continued until 68 AD and would have done it forever had Yehova not sent the Roman army to fulfill his son’s prophecy.
The Temple was the Pharisees’ political power over the people.
Those that study Yehova’s word understand these things.
Dispensationalists understand nothing.

I'll wear any criticism from YOU as a badge of honour!!
It's like walking thru a lunitic asylum an hearing the inmates telling you your the crazy one!!!
All your blathering about "torah," "Jehosephat," "religiosity"........you & your kind suck the joy & life out of the freedom YESHUA has provided humanity.
I somehow assumed you were some kind of a "New Age Messianic FAUX Jew" who holds to the original Torah. MY BAD! From a post or two ago, you admit your cult has made up its own legalism & call them torah.......bwwaaaa.....(that's like a LOL but with a hurt belly).
Your like a slippery eel slathered in oil who can't be held on to but you eventually outed YOURSELF.....lies, lies, lies....liars never can keep them straight! FAUX jew, FAUX believer, FAUX religion, FAUX freper, FAUX all day, FAUX all the time , FAUX human!
PLEASE, PLEASE keep sending your comments, I use them for a daily laugh!!!
