Sure it does.

Accepting a Social Security benefits check... which is socialism...
while complaining about socialism, especially saying that socialists
ought to be killed... is just outright hypocrisy.


I'd happily forgo my Social Security check later in life as long as I am
exempt from paying FICA today.



Remember that SS is for more than retirement. Should you get hit by a
truck tomorrow, and are unable to work, you get to collect.


I buy personal disability insurance for that kind of thing.



If the truck kills you, your wife and kids (assuming you have any) also
collect.


That's why my life policy is for.



And I'll bet you have less coverage, and pay more than SS.

Max SS for 1995 is $1939/month -- indexed to cost of living


My policy is $8400/month, tax-free, payable to age 65, and also indexed to
cost of living.

It ain't cheap, but I know it will be there when I need it. And I don't
have to worry about the government monkeying around with it and paying me a
few cents on the dollar because they mismanaged it.






Are you counting on SS after age 65, or passing on to the next world?
Seems you have the disability part covered well, how about the
retirement income -- and income for your family should you not make it
to 65?
