[The Cajun]

I worked 30 years of 50 to 60+ hour weeks and made it to where I don't need it and don't count on it.
I'll make them a deal, they give me 25 cents on the dollar of what I paid into social security and they never will hear from me again.
I'll just say that I was robbed of 75% and the crooks got away. I'm totally serious about that deal.
I think there are a bunch of us who would go for that deal. I'm 64 and haven't gotten a dime of it yet.

After 40 years of working and paying into social security and my employers paying into it I finally at age 64 (65 in May) am receiving $2100 minus $115 a month for medicare at age 64. I will never get what my employers and I paid into this ponzi scheme.

It is robbery. It’s one of the biggest scams pushed on the American people.

I’m with you.....my husband and I (both 60) have worked hard all of our lives....I’d like NOT to have to sign up for Medicare (want to pay for and choose MY OWN insurance)....and would accept the same on soc sec as you, Cajun...
