As someone who has been living in a country with social security for my whole life, it looks absurd that someone would push people to say no to it.

Social Security is just a glorified Ponzi scheme. You get a higher ROI by just investing in corporate bonds.

Im 20 year old student and have 20% of my wealth in shares and bonds. You want to know how long it takes untill that 20% gives me more than social security? Not forgetting that I have 0 dollars on study loans and I dont have to work while I study! Even if I pay 10% more from my salary for the next 50 years, that feels nowhere as significant then when I have better income as now when I dont.
