Who amongst us has the balls to say SSI is a Ponzi scheme? Reagan said unemployment insurance was a paid vacation-1976. I was unemployed then.
Hey...if they want to give me back all the money me and my employers have put into it now and let me stop giving to Social Security, I’d be more than happy to oblige! :)
Ponzi definition: New marks are needed to pay for existing marks who want their promised money. I want my promised money. It will take me many years to get back what I , my employer paid in on my behalf. Others out there must pay in to Social Security for me to collect.
Oh wait a minute the money I paid in is held as IOUs by the government that is 36 trillion in debt. I’m sure they will be able to go deeper in debt, just for me.
