When SS trust fund runs out, I fear a European-style “bail in” where the government seizes our 401K, pension, and bank savings to help continue to pay out to others’ monthly Social Security checks. I think that’s why they are so hell-bent on getting rid of guns. Remember, all these immigrants are going to get SS and SSDI whether they ever put a dime into it or not. We’re adding 2 million+ LEGAL immigrants a year, many of them chain-migration old people, all of whom will also be drawing off of SS. The system is about ready to break. Think this culture and government WON’T want elderly white people who paid into the system their whole lives get reduced payments in order to pay for everyone else? Heh. They blame us for everything NOW, just wait until the SHTF.
There is no trust fund just like there is no welfare trust fund. So the money will never run out. They would just keep quantitative easing until that generation dies off.
“...I think that’s why they are so hell-bent on getting rid of guns. “
Not only guns they want to get rid of ... the push for a cashless “society” is also on. That way you can only buy what they let you buy.
And don’t forget what FDR did for gold. They will also want to make it illegal for anyone to own gold/silver ... another source of money.
All wealth will be in gov’t controlled banks which the gov’t can take ant any time they wish.
I figure they will steal or confiscate our 401ks, but what will the govt workers have to give up?....afterall, we without defined pensions had to save like crazy to have anything at retirement and the govt workers basically had it given to them....
