I would have loved to have the option 55 years ago to either pay the government 12% now to pay me social security 50 years in the future, or allow me to fund my own social security, I would do it myself. I cashed in 2 big pensions so I could manage my own retirement funds and I did much better than if I would have stayed with the pensions.
The government has always used other pots of money to spend in other areas, or the talk on giving illegals social security. You don’t think that will drain the fund?
All of congress has been dropping the ball on social security so we will be running out of money in 10 years unless congress makes big changes which won’t be good for the workers.
Nobody wants to work these days and we need each working person to pay more into social security to fund our payroll, that’s how it works, there is no pot of money that is designated specifically for you, the current working class pay for our social security.
