I feel ya! But I don't really think this is the "majority," but for sure there will always be people that wanna work the system. I agree, the system needs an overhaul.

ya had me right up until "They managed to take an even bigger portion of MY money that I paid into to give to the young whore mothers that keep pumping out kids to get more money " Let's talk about the MILLIONS of MEN who ABANDON the Woman and the kids. Get some facts and stop whining and blaming the victims

There are a lot of bad assumptions here but for the person who complained about the huge amount of money taken out for his social security payments and lifetime medical care, a bit over 7%, that is not really a lot of money for the benefit received. As for others who don't deserve it, no one gets social security unless they are a contributor to the system. Apparently there is some confusion here with welfare. Are there some who play the system? Of course. Always. But is it a big problem? Not really, despite the selfish whiners who complain about "their" money going to the undeserved, which is largely a myth created by people who just don't get it, that we are all human beings and we live in a social system designed to care for people in need.

Wow, I'm overwhelmed. I'll check with my accountant but maybe I'll get a small ice cream cone with the largesse.

That's a multiplier of .0003 correct?

0.003 = 0.3 % = 3/10 %
