Have you noticed TeaBillies are the loudest to rant about big BAD

Listen to them.


It's the old "I've got mine" syndrome.

But, to be fair, most of them have paid their fair share into the SS
system. The complaint is what the government did with the money they
gave them. It's a valid point.

There is nothing that they have done with the money. That is most of the
problem. Every cent that came in above what was needed (the "surplus")
was put the only place that it could, a special treasury security. There
is not now, nor has there ever been any flow of money to pay back the
principle let alone the interest.
