Tax Guru – Ker$tetter Letter

It’s About Time

For well over the past 25 years, I have been warning everyone that the entire Social Security system is a scam and helping people use the tax system aggressively to avoid pouring more money into it. As one of the very few voicing such blasphemy, I had been branded as a radical nut-case.

We are finally seeing more people realize and comment publicly on what a scam Social Security has been. It’s great to see the increasing number of stories being published on this topic, such as this one.

A big word of warning. Just because more people are acknowledging the problem doesn’t mean we are any closer to having the problem fixed. There have been countless stories over the past 50+ years about how the Feds waste tax dollars. With all of that publicity, you would think that everything would be cleaned up by now. However, the level of government waste is much worse now than it has ever been. My point is: If you are expecting our rulers in Washington to fix the Social Security system before you retire, don’t hold your breath. As always, if you want to save that money for your retirement, you need to take steps of your own.
