It’s not very often that I burst out laughing when we get the mail. I’m usually annoyed at the amount of junk mail, or ticked off at the unexpected bill (ie. is it time to pay the garbage bill again?).
But today, on the day where all us common folk are wondering just how bad we’re going to get screwed, I get my annual Social Security statement in the mail. What a nice touch Uncle Sam! Waste some trees to send me paperwork on a system that is going to probably be nonexistent by the time I retire.
Furthermore, since I received a government stipend as a graduate student, I didn’t get taxed for social security, so even though I have worked since the age of 16, I am still 2 credits shy of being able to collect my nonexistent benefits. Craptastic!
It’s days like today that I want to go to Washington with a pair of ****kickers and a shovel. Of course, I’d probably need to purchase a bulldozer, but I’m not sure if I would be able to get a loan…
