[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Incorrect. Social Security was just supposed to supplement and help in retirement—never was everyone to have a pension. Never in US history did everyone (or even most people) have pensions. That thinking was a 20th century union development. Much of America was agrarian. Farmers did not have pensions. There were lots of small shop owners, etc. However, somehow, SS became a “pension” in people’s minds. Perhaps, mostly in the 60’s with LBJ and the birth of Medicare. FDR created the nanny state, but LBJ injected the growth hormones. Obamacare has taken it to a whole new level along with food stamps and disabililty growth that ensures we cannot afford it. [/quote] I just read the original legislation and what you said about Social Security is not true.[/quote]
