I don't have any brilliant ideas about how to save the SS system; I doubt
if anything drastic will be done until it falls apart.  However, I personally
would be willing to forego ANY social security benefits if they would merely
STOP my payroll deductions RIGHT NOW.  I don't want to know how much I've
invested so far, I don't care.  I'm pretty young (28), so at this point I
would probably benefit by just getting out, losing my investment, and starting
up a decent IRA.

Anybody else feel this way?  Any impression on how many people (obviously
the younger generation) feel this way?  I know this is kind of crazy, but
I'm actually kind of scared about what will happen (not to me, but the country)
when the SS system  falls apart.
