Taking away SS is the biggest scam of our generation!

I started working at 18 and have been paying into Social Security every two weeks for the past six years, trusting that when my body finally gives out, I wouldn’t have to struggle for the basics. And now you’re telling me that all that money I'm never going to see the benefits of?! Only the Boomer generation?! —the most coddled generation ever, raised on government handouts and welfare— get the benefits of socialism, while we’re left to suffer the consequences?!

I can’t imagine what it must be like for my parents, who’ve paid into for over 30 years, only to be denied what was promised Social Security near the end.

I understand balancing the budget, but ss is taken directly out of paychecks in it's own category, and should be a self sustaining system separate from the rest of the tax system.
