" Why do we continue to accept this socialist program?"

LOL, you missed the 1st misconception. It ain't voluntary. Beside that, if you do attempt to eliminate it and get close, some old guy'll run ya though with a sharpened golf shaft.

spunkets you state, "It ain't voluntary...."

Listed below is a brief letter I sent to author of the article. You may be interested in the same.

Hello Dr. Judd,

Permit me a brief moment of your time to comment on your article titled, "Six Micsconceptions about Social Security."

1--Social Security participation is "voluntary." See EEOC v. Information Systems Consulting CA3-92-0169-T IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS DALLAS DIVISION

2--The Social Security Act is constitutional because it is a law passed by our federal congress in conjunction with a treaty called the International Labor Agreement.

Laws made to implement a treaty are the law of the land. See U.S. Constitution, Article VI, Sec 2, "all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, any thing in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding."

But for the most comprehensive compendium on the subject of voluntary participation in the Social Security system, please visit the following website:

Thank you for your time.
