Now I don’t want the government in my business any more than the next person does, but what if there was a law that everyone who earned an income had to do mandatory contributions to a retirement account? Most people already do that by paying into Social Security. I am suggesting that we take the money away from the government’s control and have each individual person take care of him or herself. I know just that part of this is radical. There are an awful lot of people that want someone else to take care of them, but that is not reality. Some folks need assistance due to a variety of disabilities, but most of us are capable. The problem seems to be that there are a lot of people who are LAZY.
So let’s stop the Social Security system and have every person take care of business for his or her self, the way that responsible adults do. The government can’t fix your life, and it certainly can’t fix your retirement. As a wonderful talk show guy used to say, “Wake up, America!”
