Doogs hate personal responsibilityPurpleJ said:
I'm hearing you can set aside some of your paycheck each week in an interest-bearing account. It's called savings. Cut out the middle man that spent all the money and you'd be fine. Perpetuities are going away because people live way longer nowadays and you have no way to measure what it's going to cost in the future. People should be responsible for their own savings. Period.doogsinparadise said:SS is only in turmoil because Congress hasn't done what they need to do to solidify it. It's the single best program that this country has ever implemented. Fix it.

First, let me introduce you to negative or near negative rates. Second, when the average American is spending like 110% of their income and carrying $15k credit card statements, thinking that people are able to save for retirement on their own is d2d fucking stupid.PurpleJ said:

So we'll tax their savings out of them for their own good! Not only are there serious problems with forecasting the amount you need to pay out years down the line, there's always the chance that an individual can do much better investing their own savings. It's another example of our government thinking they know best and robbing individuals of the right to their own earnings. I'm not responsible for the poor savings habits of my fellow Americans.

T bills rock solid as usual, hedgies up and down like a fucking hurricane. Gee, I wonder why people might not want the "free market" in charge of their livelihood.
