Because even in the worst case scenarios you **are** still getting it. If Congess were to do absolutely nothing to address the solvency of social security, the fund is still capable of paying out 75% of benefits indefinitely. The idea that social security is going to be entirely gone is pushed so you don't care when Republicans actively dismantle the system.

I honestly don’t even care at this point. Gen X and the Boomers showed they don’t care about me or my generation. I’m paying for their benefits, not my own. I’d rather invest in my own future if we’re not all in this together.
