MODERATORS
Officially 67yo to get full SSI benefits from the US govt now. It's like they purposefully mismanaged the 12% of everything I produced for my entire career.
They mismanaged having the working class make enough to fund this program properly. But stagnant wages have meant the income to outgoing ratio has dipped to the point where the workers to retirees ratio is endangering the whole program. All while maintaining a cap on how much you need to contribute per year
