j/c

I paid in. From adolescence through adult life.
I payed in once again, just last week.

My pay-ins gave Americans older than me their retirement payout.
I'm getting closer to the age when I'm supposed to draw on my investment in the system I supported.

This was a promise.
Honor the promise you made when you slipped that % from my first taxable paycheck. 50 years ago.

I did what I was supposed to. Time is coming nigh that My Country step up like I did. For 50 years.

Yes- I'm keeping it simple. Because a promise is a promise.
It doesn't have to be more complicated than that.
