SS00, you wrote: "There is nothing forcing the government to pay a single cent of that money. We only owe a few trillion to foreigners. Thats the only debt that poses a risk to the value of the dollar."

Really? Really????

So, the 20 year old, now 50 who has been forced to pay SS for 30 years won't have a problem when the Gov say: sorry.

The current retirees living on their SS check will roll over.

All the wealthy who have gov. bonds, as a large part of their savings and retirement will say: no problem.

The young ones watching what is happening and is currently 30. They are watching when the Goverment defaults on its citizens and says: I will keep paying into SS.

The current government employees who are now beginning to have their retirement accounts confiscated and replaced with Gov IOU's will just say: Oh well.

Really? Really??? The Government dosen't have to pay? Did you see what happened in Wisc when the employees were asked to pay only 6% of their healthcare? Really? They don't have to pay.

There is coming a civil unrest you can't imagine.

So, you have had to reduce your argument to: the government doesn't have to pay. That is a sorry argument to die on.

Enjoy your fiat currency when it breaks loose.
