The money you paid for social security was lost pretty much the moment you paid it.

There is little left to lose, it's a redistribution scheme rather than a savings scheme.

FWIW I think we need both? Agree that the latter is severely lacking in the US.

And maybe in some distant future post-scarcity society we would not have a need for a savings scheme.

Any pension scheme is a redistribution scheme.
