Wow...well at least the government is all over this issue

Instead both state and local government are wasting time of things like:
Florida bans "Truck Nutz"

I think anyone with a brain has known SSI was nothing but a ponzi scheme for the last 20 years... If you are under 50 and think you'll ever see a dime of it, I got a bridge to sell ya.

There is absolutely no difference between Bernie Madoff and Social Security, except that SSI actually gives LESS returns to the people they are scamming. Its the GIANT elephant in the closet that no one wants to call out.
