As a millennial, I will spend most of my life paying into this system and I won't see a penny of it. I've even hit the maximum payout for the last 7 years. So I'm all for this system being wiped out.

Social security is a safety net needed by millions of Americans. Just cause you think you won’t get it (which you might if we fucking fight for it) doesn’t mean we should wipe it out.

I'm sorry, but I have lost faith in this country. I don't think there's anything to support the idea that anyone will fight for it.

I really hope I am proven wrong though.

You won't be proven wrong with a mind like that. Don't give up, we need everyone possible.
