It's not "selfish", that's just a ridiculous unwarranted personal attack by you against me.
It's just the measurable facts. The financial facts are what they are, and your snark doesn't change them.
You guys are worried about social security, yet you support the party trying to tear it apart and make it go away. It's astounding, to watch you not support your own best interests.
Social Security will be there for you well after 2037. If you want 100% of the benefits given out now, rather than 78%, it just needs a few tweeks. That's what we have done for the past many, many decades. Everyone pays into the system,and it's a safety net for the old. The most successful in the world, with 100% payouts. We've tweeked it many times before, and we will again, as populations change.
The Republicans have been screaming "the sky is falling!" in an attempt to privatize social security since Reagan. That's false.
