Are these programs dangerous? First of all, we just continue to throw money into these programs. Social security will be bankrupt. I think we only get back about 7 cents on the dollar, SEVEN CENTS ON THE DOLLAR for every dollar we put into it. We lose 93 cents on the dollar. Do you define that as success??? No investor ever would.
I'm not an expert on these programs unlike most liberals who are highly opinionated on things they really don't know anything about nor do they how to run things in the real world. That is fine but they insist on knowing more than they do and what is best for others. They should work for non-profit organizations and charities and stay out of politics and running countries.
Second of all, anything as big as those things in the wrong hands can be dangerous. Do you understand that?
I get the impression you don't see the bigger picture.
