I am not sure where you are in life, Weldon. I am retired now, maxed out on Social Security as has my wife too. It is livable for the two of us. There are funds set aside for us. My last few years I was paid extraordinarily well. My wife drew off of my SS and we banked it and I banked a portion of my salary. Not a millionaire and we get by.
Topic switch: We (AB) did submit a plan for SS and how to fund it going forward. They agreed with our findings in a note sent back to us and Representative DeFazio. It is simple and it works with small incremental increases over 10 years. The same holds true on Medicare if you wish to eliminate General funds from it. Of course, the problem with the latter is a runaway commercial healthcare industry.
Some people are incredibly determined to be ignorant. I am beyond being nice to them or tolerant.
I fall to see your survival as being unfair. We give away or allow more to support the 4 tenths of 1% who have an average income of $3.3 million (2018). Tax Policy Center and I am too lazy to look at an updated chart. So, I am low . . .
I will join your merry group here shortly. Thanks for writing. Some worthy reads.
