that's not even fair though.


It would be fair if the system was still around when I kick it, but it wont be.

yeah, so they made their money already..
no?

they get it in monthly payments.

but like socks said, the way it is set up might cause problems in the next 20 years when all the baby boomers retire and we are unable to support them and the whole system will fail.

Yeah, and whether or not that's true (I tend to think it is), I just inherently despise the idea of giving a cut of my earnings to support the nation's old shits. I can get over federal and state taxes since I do, after all, enjoy many of the services and institutions they pay for (not to mention the comforts allowed by a relatively free and unrestricted market economy), however I do not give a shit about old people especially when they are not actively improving my life. I'd rather spend the money on unemployment.
