Do you really believe you're going to get a business leader actually come out and say in public that Social Security has to end because they no longer wish to pay the payroll tax?

Once again, the employee - not the employer - pays the social security tax.

Your entire position is a bunch of conspiratorial nonsense. Republicans hate poor people! Paul Ryan wants to destroy social security! So do business leaders even though they won't say it but I know they do! Social security is good until 2037 and if not that's not social security's fault!

Government-run pension programs require good governance, something that isn't exactly in abundance here. I'm glad things are working out so swimmingly for your little country with its 20 million people, but what works for 20 million isn't going to work for 310 million. Just as a ton of people can run a million dollar business, only very few have the wherewithal to run a billion dollar business and fucking nobody on Earth is smart enough to run a multi-trillion dollar business. The federal government of the US needs to come clean about their little Ponzi scheme and then butt the fuck out of people's lives.
