    Well, that’s a very stupid take. This is what the elitists want - getting people to turn on one another, including one age range against another…

    Don’t fall for it. The boomers paid into SS and are completely entitled to it, just like everyone else after them, too.

      Dude, I’ve got another 30 plus years before I could start to collect. There’s not a chance in hell that it’s going to exist when I’m eligible. It’s all these old fucks that dug the grave for us all, they all get a nice golden parachute to ride out the rest of their short lives. We are the ones that get left with the mess. AmeriKKKa deserves trump and musk 100 percent.

        If the cons don’t fuck it up (and they want to do that), you absolutely would collect. And any “shortfall” would be easily remedied by lifting that regressive cap on it.

        I’ve been hearing all of my life that it won’t be there when I retire. And the way the cons are gunning for it, I now do doubt I’ll collect. But if it wasn’t for people trying to ACTIVELY destroy it, it would be just fine.

          Hey I’ve done my best, voted for the not cons, voted in my local elections. I’m heavily outnumbered here in FL. I’ve just lost all faith in this country. Honestly prefer it to see it burn now so the people that voted for this shit get punished before they die and leave it purely on our shoulders.

            Hey, believe me, I understand the sentiment. We are all quite worn down. I just wouldn’t give up on humanity or the country. That’s what the fascists want.

            Don’t give them that power.
