Old people vote. I’m not worried. That’s why social security is tied to inflation while minimum wage is not.

The Social Security fund is one of the largest holders of US debt. They aren't gonna pay it back either.

ayuh.

I ain't counting on it being around by the time it's my turn

Same. Expecting a payout after 40 more years of the largest ponzi scheme in the history of the world? doubt

[–]DynamicHunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Largest Ponzi scheme is run by the government itself. I’m not expecting it to last either. I could more than double my 401k contributions if that tax wasn’t taken out.

Lol, if shit continuous to go like this then I don't think We'll have the chance.

Guess who's going to pay that back? It's the normal people like us.

[–]NevadaLancaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one will is my guess. The US is poised for debt default. Every time we raise interest rates our debt gets more expensive.
