We are all paying into Social Security and all the media is predicting dire circumstances for when we turn of age. There will be nothing left, that type of thing. Doesn't mean you stop paying into it....

I read your post, stunned by the impossible words I see before me. Slowly, I swivel my chair away from my screen and toward the window. I look out upon the endless flat frigid horizon, trying to find some solace in the swirls of smoke and steam rising from the buildings on the outskirts of downtown, struggling through the bitter cold air. I shake my head slowly as a single tear runs down my cheek. I am haunted by three words that repeat themselves over and over in my head. "Thurgreed was right . . . . Thurgreed was right . . . ."
