yeah..just about everyone on a "fixed" income. That's the classic line people use to describe their reliance on Social Security. In other words...I am poor.

We've conditioned people to not save with our entitlement mentality....so now we're are harvesting the crop of despair we planted. Perfect timing too, with our indebted nation now living the economic nightmare our appetite for debt created. Can hardly wait to see how all those soon to be retirees who didn't save for their own retirement like the Social Security system.

No problem for the government. They'll know how to handle the situation. Certainly there's no way to fund it so they'll just inflate their way out of it. A Social Security check 15 years from now will be a joke, more than it is today.
