Social Security and the Angry Society

The problem is that just paying higher taxes won't by itself solve the problem because the dirty rotten pols will just steal the increase as they have with what's been done so far.

The SS funds must be separated from the rest of the fed funds and invested somewhat for a higher return, so hopefully it can grow into something real. There is no real trust fund since what's there are just IOUs from one part of the government to another that can only be paid with taxes.

With crimes of this size and importance, someone should go to jail. for a long time. but that's another story. Repairing the faith and security of the system is much more important. But getting the pols to do that will be almost impossible since they all feed off it in the same way.

The American people are being robbed blind and the pols and their finance industry buddies are doing something no outside power could do. destroying the greatest country in the world and all for greed and privilege.
