NextImg:Then We'd Like to Make a Withdrawal! Rep. Mark Pocan Insists Once Again Social Security Is OUR MONEY

Back in May, Wisconsin Rep. Mark Pocan clearly got David Hogg's memo to swear, as he told us Social Security was 'our f***ing money.' It's not. It's a Ponzi scheme that's going to collapse if we don't reform it sooner rather than later.

But Pocan's back, and while he's toned down the language, he's just as economically and politically as ignorant as ever:

If it's our money, we'd like to make a withdrawal.

In 2020, this writer's father died. He lived through the month of March, and when his March Social Security payment hit his bank account, the government took it back. Then they made her mom jump through hoops and wait weeks to get back money that was supposedly his.

And he doesn't get a penny more now that he's dead.

Nope.

Weird how Pocan isn't fighting to let us spend and invest our money the way we see fit.

Because they need a massive slush fund.

He does not know this.

Heh.

EL. OH. EL.

And it's gone.

This writer's ex-husband died at 54. While his children get a payment from Social Security, they won't get a fraction of what they paid in and that stops at age 18.

Where's his money, Mark?

It's not about math either, apparently.

We're waiting, Mark.
