Social Security Statement
Happy Days.
I got my statement today in the mail.
If you continue working until your full retirement age (67 years), your payment would be about $2,178/month.
age 70, your payment would be $2,701.
Wonderful!
The only thing this stupid document for is to make me realize how much of my money has been pissed away ($61,534) thanks to our government.
That and I made $187 dollars in 1994.
We're from the government, and here to help.

That's when the nanny state is most pernicious. Get EVERYBODY on the dole and entitlements are popular.
That's the failing with President Bush's Medicare drug benefit. It is cheaper and has more market incentives than a Democratic plan would have, but it was a mistake to put everybody on it. Means testing. If everybody’s collecting, we turn into France pretty quickly.
