Curt,
My issue with the SS now is that I am not planning on needing the funds that I paid into the system to retire but you know I am just Scottish enough that its MY money and I want back and with interest would be nice as well!
The oversight needed is to keep the ones who do not know how to work with money from squandering it and making us have to fund it later. Without oversight I would not agree to it, but with it could find a middle ground and work it out.
I lived in Germany around 10 years and paid enormous amounts of money into their retirement system. Now they are trying to refuse to pay it back to me in a lump sum or monthly when I retire. They are in worse shape than the US is when looking to the next 20 years and retirees.
