You may not like the ponzi scheme description but, since the congresses of the last 30+ years have spent the money, it fits.
And finally Yes I understand how Social Security works very well. I also understand basic math which most people that do not recognize the problem apparently don't.

Do you have a clue, you math genius?
Mostly Wars.
So wtf has happened (not that I should have to explain to you because you already know, right?) is that we have transfered what should have went to SS savings to Defense contractors and their fat cat benifactors.
So wtf we have done is not tax enough to pay for our wars. We borrowed from the SS savings account and now you freaking wanna blame SS.
The Ponzi scheme is the transfer of wealth to War Mongers.
You sound like all you know is wtf Sean Hannity wants you to know. That and that shit talking dumbass DaliLama.
They bitch about taxes and yet do not want to pay for stupid ass wars and then have the nerve to blame SS.
I do not know where you learned math but you sure as hell do not know how to follow the money.
This is no different than the grasshopper and the ant.
Defense contractors are the grasshopper and SS is the ant.
You folks are blaming the ant for saing money...and blaming SS for not adjusting to the mere simple fact that people are living longer! Of fuc'n course we need to tweek it. PEOPLE ARE LIVING LONGER THAN WHAT IT WAS SET UP FOR>
How hard is that simple math problem?
Get you facts straight and then we will talk.
And for the record Rick Perry is a piece of shit. The only good thing he ever did, he backed away from, which was the HPV shot. That sorry SOB made it harder for seniors and the poor to get help on their electric bill this year in the mist of the hottest summer on record. That money was set aside just for them. But he wanted to balance the books so he could run for President, so he basically taxed the poor and elderly by not helping them out. Fuc Rick Perry.
