Didn’t scam at all. SSDI/SSI are under the SS umbrella. Let me put it this way, I got about 20x more out than I paid in.
It’s not rare either.
Weather you like it or not, socialist entitlements are wealth redistribution and that’s all social security is. It’s a ponzi scheme that takes from the young and hands to the old. Hardly anyone has paid in as much as they get out, unless they die real early.
So what is your alleged disability portnoy???
Like I said...I have no problem with social security. You can rail against it all you want...I am all for wealth distribution...as long as all that wealth is distributed to ME...:)
“Didn’t scam at all. SSDI/SSI are under the SS umbrella. Let me put it this way, I got about 20x more out than I paid in.”
Your numbers are bs.
When I calculated my work history and adjusted for inflation, I am lucky if I am going to get back 50% of what I contributed to the system. (Social Security)
Medicare is a different story, but then no private insurance company is going to offer insurance to a sickly 70 year old.
The politicians come up with plenty of money when they want something. The Iraq war cost 2 Trillion and they are leading us into WW3 which may cost us everything.
Whether you like it or not, their is no political support for gutting Social Security and Medicare.
