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. ===Tim Thompson===BTL/Holmdel===hocda!tjt
