Yes, you are correct and some in here claim that it is an entitlement. Boomers have paid heavily into a program that they had no choice, forced into paying, and in some cases paying the top rate every damn year... Welfare is an entitlement, food stamps are an entitlement. SS for retirement is NOT. It is bought and paid for!
I would do the same thing, accept every penny that my husband and I have paid in and gladly invest it on our own to stay off and away any govt program. Until the govt agrees to that...pony up! I want my money and electric scooter!

If you think that Social Security is not an entitlement, then you have no idea of the definition of entitlement.
