The fact is that minimum wage workers all the way up to Bill Gates
are greater savers. Every worker pays 12.4% of lifetime (capped)
income into the Social Security system.

So what you are saying here is that government can take 12.4% of 
your LIFETIME income and then come back later on in your life and
act like they are doing you a favor? Perhaps you think that
most people forget about all the money they pour down the
Social Security drain?

Should I be thankful that I will never even come close to getting
even my contributions back in my lifetime? I guess I am just
ungrateful.
