Re: Entitled Selfishness: Good Newsweek article on the consquences of leaving SS as is..
These are the very reasons why my husband and I don't expect to ever receive SS benefits, despite paying in for years. We are funding our own retirement because we know we have to. If we get anything back from the government ever, that will be the day pigs fly and the devil wears ice skates. We cannot count on our government to be there for us. It is every person for themselves at our age (mid 30's). My husband intends to work until he can't so our medical benefits will stay intact. He loves his job, though so it should not be a hardship. If all goes well...
