    A bit like wanting your insurance premiums back because you didn't have a loss.
    So how is contributing to a fund that you may never get to see, equivalent with insurance? At least with insurance, you get some benefit if and when you need it.


    I’m thinking the syphylis isn’t only winning but planning the parade with you.
    Social Security is and has always been a welfare program in which money is transferred from the well-off to the poor. The rich get a negative return on their "investment" and the poor get a positive return which exceeds the negative return. Anyone who has paid in the max for decades and retires in 2023 would have been far better off putting the money into a S&P index fund. But they didn't have a choice.
    No shit, Einstein. The program is social insurance and is intended to effect some redistribution of wealth.

    If you want to make investments, open an investment account. If you paid the maximum into Social Security and didn’t put any money into investments, that’s on you.

    It isn't "insurance". When you need to lie to make your point, maybe you don't have a point. If people are on welfare, they should know they are on welfare and didn't earn it.
