[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3655145, member: 7900"] Every now and then, someone in OSA will chime in with some comment about "ending the Social Security entitlement." I have to remind them that those of us collecting our SS retirement "benefits" do so in order to get our money back. Actually, ours and the funds that our employers chipped in to match what was deducted from our pay. If anything, the only "entitlement" in Social Security is to those that never worked a day in their life but draw SS disability. Some years back, the wife and I went to the SS office in Chickasha for some reason. Out of 8 people in the waiting room it was myself and one other elderly lady that "had some age on us." The other six were there for disability issues or to get medical treatment approved (or something like that.) The little elderly lady looked at me with a look of bewilderment. [/QUOTE]
