Social Security isn't mandatory. It isn't in the US Constitution. It's something your elected representatives have passed into law on your behalf so that America isn't even more of an "every man woman and child for themselves" society than it is now.

If you want to scrap Social Security then vote for a party that wants to scrap it.

But don't badmouth "human rights". You and your elected representive aren't being forced to maintain Social Security by anyone other than public opinion.

What party did you vote for last election? Was it part of their platform to scrap Social Security completely? If yes, you didn't vote Republican or Democrat. I can't imagine who you voted for because not too many parties, even among the fringe, want to scrap Social Security completely.

America doesn't suffer from too much "human rights", it suffers from bad government.
