If someone told you we have a retirement plan where we are going to force you to pay in for 40 years, never show the value of your total savings, and only pay you a small stipend and at your death inherit your life savings.
You would say this is criminal. Unfortunately this is our Social Security system. It's a great fraud pushed on the American people.
The problem with Social Security isnt social security. That is a great windfall for the govt. The problem is the abuse of it, people paying in 5 years and collecting for 40 yrs+, and the real problem, as we all know, is the government spending. They want to raid social security to cover the out of balance spending.
Hard to add anymore good to this.
Solid post.
