re: #279 Escaped Hillbilly

Oh for God’s sake grow up. Lucky you. I made all those same decisions. And I ended up bankrupt (for a while). Ever had an arsonist burn down your house? A drunk run over your kid? A family member get cancer? A crook steal your savings? So what if none of that happened and you just never could quite make a go of it? Starve? Someone has to take care of the elderly. Its cheaper to do it through this boondoggle. If you have a better solution, say so. Just saving is not gonna cut it.

So how is Social Security in it’s present form helping those problems?

And I’ve already pointed out that most elderly complain that the payments are TOO LOW right now.

What is your solution?
