There is literally nothing more satisfying than each of us receiving about $2900 in SS funds every month, knowing it's mostly the younger generations that now have to pay for it. I don't give two shits whether they ever get a cent out of it or not. In fact, I encourage these lazy generations to get 2nd and maybe 3rd jobs, just to keep the funds coming.

Ponzi scheme....scam....legit? Who the F cares?!!
So you don't care if your daughter gets screwed by this?
