Oh for cryin out loud..
This question again???
If we have untold billions to send to other countries, untold billions to pay to illegal immigrants, untold billions to buy bullets for government agencies, then we have the cash to pay to people that paid into this system.
Period.
End of discussion.
If you restricted it to those who paid in, and their deserving survivors, that would be one thing. But now it's welfare for everyone who didn't pay because the ability to pay was a white privilege.
Thank You!
I’ll add your response to “Is it the end of our Country” also.
It really gets old.
Proud American, and always will be.
Bingo! And you don't want to piss off a bunch of old people with nothing to lose who have been paying into the system their whole lives.
Yup—bring all the troops home and seal the border.
Deport all illegal aliens.
End all foreign aid.
Eliminate half of the federal agencies.
After all that is done then maybe we can start talking about Social Security.
What all of these things have in common is that they completely sever the link between financial compensation and productive work. You could even say it’s all part of a delusional scam that tries to erase the limitations of the human condition that were established with the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden.
If we have untold billions to send to other countries, untold billions to pay to illegal immigrants, untold billions to buy bullets for government agencies,
Hence, the problem: We DON’T have the money. They’re printing it with nothing to back it up.
But we don't.
We don't have "untold billions" to give to other entities. We keep writing checks and those get lumped into the overall debt our country owes its creditors.
Do you not understand that?
Nope!
I Ponzi scheme will collapse on its own. The things you cited just make it collapse faster!
