Without Social Security, a goodly portion of you wuber-conservatives would probably be sitting by the side of the hiway underpass in your home of a refrigerator carton because you saved NOTHING during your working career.

All of you should be thanking Social Security for your checks every month and you will probably draw out much more than you every put in the system.
Ridiculous argument. Nobody has a choice in their participation into this program which was scammed into practice as an "insurance program" and then unconscionably transformed in it's present day "entitlement" by the "Godfather of Socialist Democrats"

Money was forcibly extracted from the paychecks of every working American to fund this "insurance program/entitlement" with the promise that they would get back this money on retirement.

I know I've won the Socialist argument with a Socialist Democrat when they bring up Social Security.
