Um, why did you post that to me? You posted it to my reply that called BS on a boomer that claimed they would only see 1% of what they put into the system. I to am one of the persons that has already capped my "potential" (notice quotes) for benefits received from SS but I still get to pay in a large portion of my property (earnings) for the next 25 years.
I to am one of the persons that is planning for retirement without any SS benefits (not counting on a pension either).
Many boomers planned the same way, but many so called "conservative" boomers want theirs now! They didn't actively defeat socialism in the USofA, they now want to ensure it is not defeated, then they get mad when we want to force its defeat. Conservatism is great, as long is it isn't inconvenient!
I am very sorry...I thought I was replying to the person who was posing the question I was responding to. Please forgive the confusion :D
