In a comedy it's funny due to it's ridiculousness, but this is the actual situation with ss and it's far from funny.
Social Security in the U.S. is a Ponzi Scheme

So what if they invested it in Trump companies? We would have nothing. You do not risk it. Any investment would be in government bonds.
Show your work. There are disabled who are unable to work. Is there some cheating? Sure, and they make good TV. But people seize on the rare cheaters to justify not helping anyone, ever. Disability is not a separate fund. That is a fact. Your speculations are irrelevant.
Who in the fuck is talking about Trump? Is everything about your Daddy now?
I bet you're one of those phony disabled SSDI parasites aren't you?
AND you pay taxes on what you are given when you finally collect what you put in, just a kick in the nuts to retirees.

Your revisionism and myopic meanderings border line of full psychotic fantasy.
The Apartheid Punk's babblings have LONG been debunked:

“Social Security is the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.”

It seems neither you or the Apartheid Punk understand how the Social Security system works. Did you know that by IRS rules and law, if Social Security is your only source of income, you don't pay taxes? That's because for many recipients their SocSec does NOT meet the COLA. Or that by merely raising the "cap" you dump serious bucks into the SocSec fund, keeping it solvent for decades to come?
I know it's a LOT for you to stop parroting your myopic mumblings and actually THINK using ALL FACTS available but give a try. It won't kill you.
Are you accusing GOP politicians of crimes?
The fuck is wrong with your brain? I will say that when I mean that.
Way to avoid answering the question though. Typical leftist drivel when there is nothing left to lie about.
You are completely fucking clueless. You dipshits have lost everything now but your arrogance. Not a good look.
When you have no counter argument it's better to not reply than to post something as utterly stupid as the above.
This dipshit has been in a decaying orbit of stupidity since his first post in this thread.
His reply boiled down to NUHN UHN. It is pathetic.
SHOW ME THE NUMBERS!
show him the numbers.
SHOW ME DIFFERENT NUMBERS! WHAT ABOUT THE COST OF EGGS?
You can neither make this shit up nor help these fools. At least that chump Concart could do basic math.
I am not and your charge has no logic or sense to it. I care about others. Trump and his minions are attacking SS. Did you not know that?
That's a bold faced lie. They are attacking fraud. If that makes you nervous so be it.

Stop blaming me for your own issues. You'll never learn that way.

This person has two legs to walk on. Walking doesn't cost anything. Bus fare is another option for this person and it is fairly cheap ($780/yr in my neck of the woods). Add $780 onto his yearly expenses if you wish, otherwise this person lives in an apartment that is close enough to where he works so that he can walk to and from work each day.
This person gets health insurance through his employer; that expense is taken out of his paycheck pre-tax. I've already included that expense in my calculation.
This person lives in an apartment and utilities are included in the rent rate. I've already included that expense in my calculation.
Donations don't cost anything.
Otherwise, add a few dollars here and there if you wish. Often enough, shirts and pants can be purchased for a few dollars each if you go to the right places or take advantage of the right sales. Lots of people sell clothes at garage sales for a little of nothing.
This person gets paid for the typical holidays that private-sector workers get paid for (New Years, Memorial, Independence, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc) 2,080 hours/year is a standard guesstimate for total hours worked per year (40hrs per week, 52 weeks per year). This person might also have overtime opportunities and work overtime for extra money.
Why are you assuming that this person owns a car? Maybe he walks to work each day. Maybe he rides the bus each day. Maybe he rides bike around. Auto insurance isn't a part of this person's expenses.
See above. Gasoline isn't a part of this person's expenses.
Included in this person's rent rate.
Included in this person's rent rate.
This person has health insurance through his employer and that rate is taken out of his paycheck pre-tax. Already accounted for. See above.
Clothing does NOT have to cost $400/year. Not even close. See above.
This is all included in my calculation. See above. See my prior post. The math is there, dude.
I'm "admitting" that YOUR claim that they "can't" retire a millionaire is bullshit. See above. See prior post. See calculations.
I forgot nothing. See above. All necessities are included (and I was even quite generous with phone/internet).
You've done nothing other than show us that you have absolutely no clue how to read, comprehend, perform basic math calculations, or even how to "pinch a penny".

Sybil is looking down on other people in less fortunate situations than himself.
So you do not know what they are doing. That already showed. Trump aims to kill SS. They said they were going to stop checks as soon as next month. Then the blowback made them change. You are so proudly wrong. https://www.americanprogress.org/article/trumps-plan-defund-social-security/
