Whew, that was close-for a second there I thought Social Security was faced with being upside down. Thank Goodness it is safe and sound:roll:
I'm a lot closer than that...It is the ones who will come to the well in 20 years who will likely find that they owe money to the system. this bail out will not be a freeby you know.
I'll never see a dime of it as long as the US government is allowed to control it.
I would be better off socking it away under my mattress...
Good thing is, most everyone in my generation realizes that. Bad thing is, no one in the generation before us seems care!

Darn. Just think the other day SS could have been purchasing massive quantities of stocks that two days later rebounded, making some people millions of dollars. Now if we could just get that 48% tax rate passed so we could punish those sorry individuals for taking a chance.
Factchecker request-what was the proposed parking place for SS $$$ and would it have been endangered by the current 'meltdown'? Wall Street wonks?

IF you are going to start asking for facts in a political discussion, all the fun is going to be gone.
Speaking of that, did you ever reveal your source for the supposed 48% tax rate that you tossed out on that other thread?
