Could we please not refer to SS as an "entitlement"? I know that this is what the powers-that-be choose to tell us.
To me, it is not an entitlement nor a benefit. It is the same as any other insurance. Workman's Comp. and Unemployment Insurance are both paid for by employers....no choice for them, either, just the same as their forced SS matches. Remember, too, it is not just the individuals who pay into SS, but their employers as well.
Thanks.
