By the numbers: Social Security - CNN.com
56 Million Americans received SS. All of them paid into it. What you and the rest of the left fail to realize is that the money for this program was poorly managed by government. If this had been a private retirement program the administrators would be in jail for fraud and fiduciary malfeasance.
47 million Plus are on food stamps. How many more are on Welfare, section 8 housing and other entitlement programs that they did not pay for?
Lastly SS is a ponzi scheme and needs to be phased out along with Medicare. Both are a disaster and have casued untold damge to the American way of life.
