“People are under the erroneous impression that they pay into the Social Security system for themselves, and liberals have done absolutely nothing to discourage this impression they have of Social Security. Nothing could be further from the truth. The SS system is set up so that members of the workforce pay into the system for the people going into retirement ahead of them. So we are paying for others’ retirement and others are paying for our own retirement under this system. Aside from the affront to liberty regarding our own monetary affairs that this system represents, there is only one way that this system could work out mathematically: the government must value human life and dignity above all else and it must value marriage as the life-giving institution that it is. If the government ceases to do this, which it has, you wind up with more people entering retirement than there are people in the workforce to support their SS checks.
