    True. Because every rich **** who paid into it thinks that it's their money.

      Two simple, and for the most part pain free, things we could do to help our financial situation.

          Then quit voting for the fu**ers who keep screwing you and telling you it'll be alright as they use your tears as lube.

            This is a misconception, social security payments have nothing to do with recipients' poverty level or any kind of means testing. It's not insurance against poverty, it's just a straight ponzi scheme that transfers taxes on workers to retirees. Has nothing to do with how poor they are.

              Questionable results on touchscreen voting machines with no paper trail to check causing you to be sued to take a peek at the digital data?

              Just wipe the server and any backup servers of the data and pretend it never existed!

                No it's not. A Ponzi scheme is a pyramid scheme. Social security is simply a direct transfer of wealth from workers to retirees, just like insurance is a transfer of wealth from the lucky to the unlucky (or fortunate to unfortunate, if you prefer).

                  It’s not exactly clear why Georgia officials decided to wipe the server.
                  Yeah, it is.

                    I know the payments have nothing to do with the poverty level. That doesn't mean that part of the intent of the law was to prevent poverty at retirement.

                    At a November 27, 1934 meeting the staff displayed a large wall-chart showing two trend lines, one for old-age assistance and one for the social insurance program. The line for old-age assistance was heading down while that for social insurance was heading up. At the point where they intersected, social insurance would have assumed the bulk of the burden of providing old-age security in America. Thus, general revenue expenses for old-age assistance would steadily diminish, thanks to Social Security.

                    Basically it was a welfare prevention program and it's done a great job doing that.

                            Stating you could make the argument insinuates you have a pretty good idea what that argument would be.
