Social Security Is A Ponzi Scheme!

Luckily you will get more out than you put in because your employer was matching. Self employed? Not so much.

Been saying this for the entirety of the 50 years I've been paying the income tax the federal government levies to fund the scheme. But, you gotta give FDR credit, he was right when he said he was going to structure it so that no damn politician would ever be able to take it away. When the "trust fund" runs dry, you can bet your last fiat nickel that the politicians will just rob funds from the general treasury to make up any shortfall so they can keep their seat in Congress.
