What you have paid into social security is yours... Don't you let anybody take that from you... I want my money and I want it with whatever interest I am entitled to.

I understand how you feel and I agree with you in sentiment. However, if you need something to make you even angrier, do you know that the Supreme Court decided a case saying that there is no individual entitlement in social security? You can pay in until your last day and the government is not obligated to earmark a penny for you.

That makes those data sheets they mail out once a year showing what you can expect to receive from Social Security a bit of a lie. But this is the fedgov we're talking about, how is that anything new?

What's weird --- on my pay check it doesn't say Social Security tax anymore --- it's something called OASDI which means "old age, survivor, disability insurance" tax. I wonder what that is.

Sounds to me that SS is a contract in which critical information was withheld prior to my signing. I want out of the contract based on fraud. Any attorneys out there got the balls to take it on?

Yes, I am aware that the Supreme Court defied the clear intent and common understanding of the deal the government forced us into. You know what I don't know, and perhaps you do? Who stood where in this decision? Where was Scalia in this decision, for example.
