SOCIAL SECURITY
I Feel that the cap on S.S. should be lifted and there should be no cap
at all. Pay on your grouse earnings. If you earn 30,000 you pay on
30,000 and if you earn 100,000 pay on 100,000 and on up the ladder.
There are millions that earn over the 100,000 dollar cap. So we all pay
our share and that way the younger folks would be able to get S.S. when
they reach the age that they can collect this benefit.
This benefit should go only to the people whom are intitled to it, for
years of hard work in this U.S.A.. You pay in, you collect, you don't
pay in, you don't collect, fireman,railroad employees spouse ect. are
exempt.

Social Security Benefits
I'm not counting on it. I'm relatively young (mid 30s), and there is no
way it will be available for me in the long run - very unfortunate.
I'd love to say that since I've paid into the government since my teens,
will continue to pay until retirement, this benefit is a given.
Unfortunately, that is not the whole story. The money will just not be
there in the long run. very sad

Social Security
I agree with others, it is earned, therefore should only go to those who
have paid in and nothing should go towards US General Fund or illegal
aliens.
I feel one way to secure it for future generations is to gradually raise
the limits on earnings before deductions stop. Perhaps only 1-2% a year
would extend it life for many add'l years.

Social Security is Ponzi
Social Security is a Ponzi scheme, something providing a return to early
investors in order to entice new investors. In reality the return paid
out to early investors is paid for by incoming new investors. Ponzi
schemes fail. It converted to Ponzi the day the Social Security Trust
Fund went away.

social security pole
I have now worked for 49 years "planning" to use social security for my
retirement, yes I'm counting on it. As someone else commented, it's not
a gift we've earned it.

Social Security
Social Security is a benefit that is earned. It is not a gift from the
government. Seniors should expect and demand to be paid what they have
been promised.
