Default Re: Entitled Selfishness: Good Newsweek article on the consquences of leaving SS as is..

I don't wanting to collect Social Security is selfishness. I have been paying into this for years and I am entitled to collect the promised benefits. I would be more than happy to "opt out" of SS and put the money that I earned off the sweat of my brow into my own retirement plan. Calling people "selfish" is another tactic of the govt to keep your income as a tax and create another entitlement instead to fritter away our hard-earned money on.
I am all for getting rid of SS. But, why should I pay and pay and pay my whole woking life and get nothing?
