In other words, taxpayers should give every person who worked in private construction checks for life. I think that's fine, in the sense they "deserve" it as much as anyone else, but it's certainly not a conservative take.Nigress, my friends who all reached pension age and had beaten bodies. I still assume you're full of shit and would be getting an 800 buck ssi check as I assume you haven't earned good money for most of your life. You literally brag about swindling johns, that usually doesn't get FICA taxed. What exactly do you so for a living that you go crazy periodically and leave a job and start a new one when your medicated? Who hires you with a work history like that? I'm serious. My friends who did 30-35 years and then get essentially an early retirement SS check in the form of a real disability that makes working hard physical labor much harder all did more work in any single decade of their lives than most people who have worthless identity studies degrees do in a lifetime. They paid in and I encourage them to take it while they can as I would you if you paid in in. It won't be there in 10-15 years.
I still don't get how regular social security works for old people. I look at what my grandpa collects and it's more than I pay in each year, and I have a more well-paying job than he ever had. So what I put in, doesn't clear one person's yearly social security benefit.
Shit's clearly going to collapse or benefits will be way reduced by the time I ever think about collecting any
Then again, all this squabbling about what people "get" or "deserve" gets really stupid when you realize it costs $69K a year to house an inmate in NY Lol
You really shouldn't begrudge what other people are getting, in that context
