Collecting social security we will never, ever use.
Obviously both are to blame
It's not fair to put the blame entirely on one
...
This is how they skate
"We didn't start it!!"
Okay but... you're definitely not fixing it.
How are you fixing it?
What, social security?
How would I?
How long has my generation even held any offices?
And I mean ANY.
The boomer generation got a lollipop when it was young.
And it liked that lollipop so much..
You didn't just say social security, you said "everything"
It demanded its children give them another.
Social security is just the biggest thing that no one can deny.
I always lead with it.
Social security was going to fail regardless
There were surpluses.
It was spent on other shit.
but google isnt bias ....
A surplus is temporary. Gibs are not sustainable over time
GIBS ME DAT
--For a system like social security, not saving the surpluses was fucking ridiculous.
The boomers are going out with it.
Bye bye.
We'll just not retire, I guess.
Oh boy.
What a future.
You know it won't be there, so find an alternative
The fuck are you babbling about
Find it?
It's not treasure.
And on the interim it's picking our pockets.
We pay into something WE AREN'T GOING TO USE.

not the german SS the american SS
