Christians are the Problem

An older guy who is truly a very kind person, and has an official (though unpaid) position at my church posted the following.

With friends like this who are confused and distorting the truth in such a way, who needs enemies? This guy is smart, and a knowledgeable Christian.

If social security was insurance, it wouldn’t be paid out to everyone. But it is mandatory to pay in and everyone collects who lives past a certain age.

We also know it’s not insurance, because the first people to collect barely paid anything in. “The first monthly payment was issued on January 31, 1940 to Ida May Fuller. She paid a total of $24.75 into the Social Security System. Her first check was for $22.54. After her second check, Fuller already had received more than she contributed over the three-year period. She lived to be 100 and collected a total of $22,888.92.”

Social security is theft. It is not insurance. It is a Ponzi scheme. Government is the enemy of Christians. It is antichrist. That is the tidbit of truth that Christians are missing. There is no city, county, state or federal agency that is not an enemy to Christianity, free markets, and the truth.

Many baby boomers, like the man who posted the meme, are fond of mocking millennials. Millennials are probably worthy of mockery along with every other generation, but baby boomers are the real problem. Even the good ones defend socialist programs like social security.
