Wrong. I stand by my original statement that increase in life expectancy causes it to be a ponzi scam by default.

Regardless of whether or not it's a Ponzi scheme ( which I believe is readily evident if you actually look at its execution), SS does not allow the person that pays into it the ability to leave anything to his heirs should he die prematurely. A surviving spouse has her benefits increased temporarily, but if there is no spouse, then anything paid into the system goes to the government imbalance sheets and nowhere else. This is extremely unfair to minorities, who tend to die much earlier, and often haven't even a spouse to affect, but it's just plain unfair and wrong anyway you look at it. You're an ignorant troll POTUS.
