We need Social Security. Period. We need to fix it, but opting-out isn't the answer.

I agree 100%. If it wasn't for all of you paying SS my mother-in-law would be living with my wife and I right now. =)
Joking aside, my mother-in-law raised 4 children, got divorved while raising the 4th child (my wife), was laid off from her job, and has bad arthritis. The SS she receives is the only money (besides the money my wife and I send her) she has to pay the bills and support herself. If the SS dried up, I don't now what we would do!
And I'm sure we're not the only ones facing problems like this.
