one of the biggest slimes...
i could come up with 4/5 ways to fix SS. i am an idiot and they would all suck. the problem for the future is inflation. it is a problem for every part of the economy. us boomers will likely mostly get by on pensions,ss,savings and lower levels of real needs day to day. gen x will be +/-. many will have investments,401s,etc. but not all will. mils,z are in trouble. you speak of a 60K income which is now needed to just get by. rents @ 2K,buying any house needing >100k incomes,cars and trucks going 20-90k+. major appliances needing replacement every 7 yr. food costs 3-5x in 80s. there is likely to be nothing left for saving/investing.
got no clue for a solution. but a warning. in history these kinds of unfixable problems have frequently caused massive social disruptions,wars and societal collapse.
pretty sure that's why the refused to show,

Nope, not wrong. Inflation can and does erode that initial ROI significantly over time. I understand where you are coming from, but that 80% ROI is only on 5% of your earnings and isn't the return it should be. You are still missing the time component along with taxes. Here's how much value the dollar has lost over the years:
2010: 31% - what cost $1 would cost $1.45 today - 1/3 of your 401K money is gone today. MM avg 0.17% (TOTAL LOSER)
2000: 45% - what cost $1 would cost $1.83 today - almost 1/2 of your money is gone today. MM avg 5.89%
1995: 52% - what cost $1 would cost $2.07 today - just above 1/2 of your money is gone today. MM avg was 5.48%
1980: 74% - what cost $1 would cost $3.83 today - 3/4 of your money is gone today. (401K first opened) MM avg 12.68%.
See the problem? And the kicker is that the 80% ROI in your example is ONLY on 5% of your earnings. The longer you live the more of that you lose to inflation, and you STILL have to pay taxes on top of that when you pull it out. This is the price of monetary inflation that our elected officials have burdened us with. Inflation over time is eroding the purchasing power in real terms.
Then assume you retire and pull in $80K annually from your traditional 401K, which is not too shabby all things considered. The tax rate for that is 19% after calculating the progressive tax ladder, which knocks a hole in the money market returns and may even eat into your principal in real terms causing a loss. So you get $64.7K annually after tax - $5400 per month.

My point is that SS is a racket, we all know that. But the 401K is not without its problems either and must be actively managed.

If I'm being honest, I think inflation will be the thing that causes many to work until they die or are unable to and will then be in poverty until they die.
Underscoring the commies got what they wanted with Arizona and Wisconsin (I'll refrain from my opinion of Michigan's candidate). CHEAT CHEAT CHEAT. Trump should recess appoint him and put the middle finger to these four. Line in the sand. Sadly Alaska and their ranked choice have screwed us until 2028 and I doubt Collins will run again (just as well, she's by all means a member of the communist party). Don't know much about Curtis. Mitch cannot retire soon enough, we can all agree on that. One more freeze up and he may not move again.
For fucks sake - do you know how many do not even save 5% of their salary? You are to busy bloviating to get my point, which has nothing to do with my original post.
You do you and I will do me.

Yet, no mention that this will lower income tax and he even hinted replacing income tax. SO, if you make money and are employed, this wont make much difference, unless one is already not paying taxes.
