After working for 30 years or more, it is an extremely nice comfort to know that a check comes each month to pay for food, clothing, medicine, etc. And, it is these people who already paid into the fund - they deserve to get the money they contributed to Social Security.

And yes, it was and still is the means to protect our senior citizens from poverty. Hopefully, we will all grow old - and have a means to pay our way.
