Face the fact that SS is a double tax that you will always pay and might get some small slice back. But there's nothing right about it.
I love it when the kids (RL) like to "school" curmudgeons like me about things like this. I will not accept it as a double tax. You can if you want. I will fight for my money back. It's my right to fight for it. If I loose, I will be one angry SOB. And I show my anger though participation in the political process.

B2's war is a premeditated criminal act. WTF should I fund it?
