(31,493 posts)so for a more balanced summation of the bull shit insolvency problem we would have to figure in a good estimate of how many will be on the roles over that 30 years. I'd like to see an estimate graph chart. You can also factor in possible changes to Medicare that might affect deaths during that time ...which is kinda hard to do. We don't how much we are going to get screwed yet. Right now the minimum cost of the Medicare premium is $99 (I think) not including part B and there's talk of raising that. What ever that is will have to be paid out of the SS one receives. You can figure that many will not be able to pay that which will increase the amount of deaths over that 30 years. It's all bull shit though because SS is taking in more than it is spending and someone owes for what's been taken out of the fund for non SS use. Oh silly me ...no one is going to pay that back ...because someone thinks war is more important than old people ...including those that fought in wars for this country. This country is all about deceit and lies. It's no wonder they call it ...The Great Satan.
