[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If social security is truly self funded why have everyone get paid out whatever they put in and then stop it all together.[b] Then moving forward make it optional[/b].[/quote]

Most people are not smart enough to plan for retirement. That’s why we need mandatory social security. 
Do we have to repeat the lessons of the Great Depression again?[/quote]

This. 
People can’t plan ahead, which also why 40?% can’t come up with 400.00 in an emergency.
If you gave them 1K, they’d spend it and still wouldn’t have the 400.00 in an emergency [/quote]

This is extremely out of touch. Too many people are without the means and guidance to plan for retirement, especially in early adulthood when they might not have steady employment.

Yes, they would spend that $1000 instead of putting it in an emergency fund. They would use it to pay bills.

This is another reason why we need SS. It allows every working person some level of preparation for retirement. [/quote]
