I mean, that’s what “Social Security” has always been: a suckers’ bet that said marks get to pass onto the next generation to do the same for less, ad infinitum.
It’s complete bullshit, and 100% a con —always has been.

What a terrible poll. It intentionally asks an inflammatory question, taking advantage of a poorly understood issue. What this poll is really showing is that people want to fund social security, and are willing to raise taxes to do so. I bet if they’d asked about taxes on the wealthy, we’d have seen even higher support, but they didn’t for some reason…?
“The Cato Institute is an American libertarian think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C. It was founded in 1977 by Ed Crane, Murray Rothbard, and Charles Koch,[5] chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Koch Industries.”
Are there any think tanks that genuinely care about the working class?
From what I’ve seen, think tanks just exist to create distractions for consumerists.
