It didn't ever occur to you that Social Security shouldn't be your main
retirement plan, that it is neither an investment program nor insurance,
and yet you try to make pinheaded comparisons to "prove" that Social
Security is somehow bad.

No wonder the country is in such a mess, with politics based on such
stupidity.

No, I comprehend quite well.

You have made false claims, and made several misrepresentations about
what Social Security is, and what SS does. Then, having ranted against
the evils of socialism, you announce that you'll accept socialism quite
happily when it puts money in your pocket even when you don't need it.


... I have argued for a long time that
SS is not a retirement plan. But lots here think it is the national
retirement plan. Keep the old living large.

Who exactly is "living large" on Social Security?
