Anyone who calls it an entitlement or welfare is simply not being honest.And we can all agree that Missourian has no idea of what is being discussed.Sure, right wing morons, lets give social security funds to Wall Street gamblers and see what could possibly go wrong.
Picture yourself as a 90 year old in a nursing home getting a letter from some WS bank stating, "sorry, we gambled and lost your money......have a nice time out on the street."
Here is one looming fact that all of us I think can agree on. No one on this forum is knowledgeable enough to debate this on the merits one way or the other.
One, SS is not an entitlement.
Two, it is an old age insurance program into which we all pay.
Three, it is our money.
Should be, but isn't. Not a dime from your check came from your pocket, it came from your children. Just like any other welfare recipient
