So you are asking my generation to suffer so you don’t have to? Got it.

You obviously are not one to (1) grasp a solution when it’s presented or (2) pay attention to the actual reality and the facts about that reality.

Was I robbed? Absolutely. Would I like to see future generations not get robbed? Absolutely. I could have made that clear.

Kitty gets most of it wrong. Hence the ‘solution’ he proposes is DOA. His argument looks good, but only because he makes it using nominal values. Using inflation adjusted values he can’t make it work. Which is why he wants you to focus on nominal. He’s wrong, but not stupid.

SS is a problem. But the solution involves more than just SS. If you look at the actual historical record, it began going off the rails about the time Disability was added in. That’s not even a Ponzi. It’s 95% outright fraud. It’s an industry. SS cannot be addressed until the Disability issue is addressed. Kitty doesn’t even bring it up. Which means both you and the cat have no actual idea what you are talking about.

There. I fixed it for you.
