For the sake of argument....
I contributed fully FOR MY ENTIRE CAREER while they contributed fully for 1/2 their career.
They are getting a pension for the time they did not pay into SS and partial SS in consideration that they only paid for 1/2 their career.
Either:
- The adjustment is fair so that those that paid only half their career do not receive twice the benefits of those that paid their entire career
OR
- I need to know who to talk to in order to get two SS checks - one for the first half of my career to match their pension and another for the second half of my career to match the SS they will now receive.
