I just want to get a heck of a lot more return for a 12% year on year investement than the putrid returns that social security provides. What a rip-off. If I die at 65 the guvment says...allrighty then thanks a bunch old boy. Heck quit having my employer match it and just let ME put in 6% year on year.

Not to mention that the current ponzi scheme just begs for the guvment to raid it. I want my "retirement" to be MY BLANKING RETIREMENT money and not at the whim of someone in washington who whenever they damn well fell can change how much I receiver, when I receive it, how much more I pay, etc.

How anyone can like this system is beyond me. It reeks of corruption and as it's been raided for years you can see that it is just that, corrupt and bascally bankrupt.
