QT would probably be out of business if we all did not crave such things :)<br /><br />The issue is whether Social Security is an insurance policy or an entitlement. In practicality it is treated a bit like both.. it was more of an entitlement for the early recipients as they did not pay much into it.kc bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17440862813109808755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-69746416394028782292010-07-10T09:28:01.900-05:002010-07-10T09:28:01.900-05:002 quick points Bob: 1.

I don't see people that begrudge the poor their support, they are more upset about what they do with it. 2. Social Security and all the other "Geezer Bailouts" surely do not equal the money we as individuals have put into it. I see those programs more as mandatory insurance we are forced to buy. I would rather they just give me a lump sum once I am eligible plus interest earned. Also, It should go to my family if I die early. After all, It's my money. Tom TAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
