I wasn’t aware of that -
I did say on my two ‘alternates’ possibly - with the ONLY reason being that at least the person who put into it had the opportunity to get something out of it.
Of course when the program was ‘invented’ only a handful of people lived much beyond 65 so, in essence, it was a ‘tax’ without the nasty label.....

Well, the word "tax" appeared multiple times in the original law as well as the subsequent Supreme Court cases which said it was not a pension at all that anyone was entitle to but just another income tax.
