That all good and well for you. However, if you extend that attitude to say "and I'm not going to allow congress to properly fund social security as a result", then you are the problem.
The parent poster's stance is the correct one to have: make no plans for SS to exist, so if it does, you're just in a little better shape than you expected.
Most people who post on HN will experience a negative ROI on the money they paid into SS, unless they live well into their 90s.
If they want to tax me to pay for Social Security, then they will, and I don't really have much recourse. It does as much good to shake my fist at the weather as fuss about other things I can't control.
