Social Security was meant to, and still does, mean assuring an income to people once paychekcs no longer come in, an assurance citizens did NOT have prior to its inception. For 60 years it has worked, and the complaints against it are primarilly ideological.
It is a social entitlement- it is society saying, even when old, we will give you enough not to starve or drop dead. Its not about making people rich at the end of life- you won't be rich of Social Security, but you will have something.
People are free, always have been, to save the income they do get however they wanted- each and every American making above 30,000 coupld probably afford to sneak away $100 a month in a money market account- no one has stopped the American people. The fact people DONT, the fact so many live of social security should be more than opbvious that most people will not get involved in stock speculation.
This board has a few great falings, few women, few elderly, so a bunch of young or middle aged white men (cause non-whites here too are a minority) go off shooting their mouths, and for all the intellect present (cause this group is very smart), it can still be filled with so much nonsense.
