yep. I can I can. It's not that I begrudge people their pensions, its just that hey I was paying this when I was driving a cab gettign robbed for a living in DC to feed my kids and people with many times my income where saying hey we paid in so we are entitled. I paid in too and I doubt I will ever see mine. Personally I think social security pensions should have a means test. Maybe $100 000 a year and below.
