Believe you me Dope there are lots of people who are dependent on SS, they would live a very hard and harsh life without it.

I'm aware of that. And, if you go back and read the thread, my original proposal was:

-I keep my share of what I contribute to SS
-The government keeps what my employer(s) contribute
-I get nothing out of the entire Social Security program

Meaning, I would have been fine with not receiving any benefits from SS while still having my employer pay in on my behalf.

The government would have gotten half of the contributions meant for my retirement with *zero* payout to me later on. Win/win.

Alas.
