I saw IOUSA - it was very interesting. The fact is, that Social Security wasnt supposed to be forever and it was never supposed to be the entirity of someone's retirement.
I will drain my IRA, pay the taxes and keep my money under my matress before I sign up to let the government manage it for me - I dont care if they call it a nonprofit. I will also not take a dime.
The hubs and I have always figured we would pay into it and not be able to collect a dime - we made peace with it a long time ago - we will provide for ourselves and will teach our kids to do the same.
This system needs to go down - it wont be easy and it wont be pleasant, but it will bring families together, make Americans save more and will be better for us in the long run...
Haven't had one in years.... Thanks for the info!
