I mean, jeez. Sure, my mom worked all her life and paid taxes but WTF? She has $232 dollars a month in pension from the company she worked for FOR 23 YEARS. What does she need with Social Security with a landfall of cash like that?

My kids? More of the same. Why should I pay for it if one their young, healthy little selves comes down with cancer? They're almost 22! They should have a "nest egg" of about $500,000 or so by now to pay their own damn way and pick themselves up by their own damn bootstraps.
