Maybe instead of placing the blame on the "Greedy Geezers" you blame should be directed to our wonderful elected officals who have replaced the funds collected for SS with worthless IOU's

If the money collected was kept in this account and invested correctly, and not stolen, SS would be so huge that retires would be like our elected officals and get more money when they retired than when they worked.

Not only that...

What about the people in their mid-fifties that saved and invested, only to have some broker line the pockets of Terry McCauliff.

The politically well-connected made millions and the average folk were left to put on the Wal-Mart hairshirt after losing their real shirt.

Moreover, I never hear people complain as much about their Merk stock getting padded with Medicare money, but them ole' blue hairs is stealin' them blind.
