Not only is Social Security run by bureaucratic buffoons, but apparently theyâre also thugs who like to shake down injured cops... [Energy and Capital Header] Practical Investment Analysis for the New Energy Economy More Proof the Government Is Stealing Your Retirement Jeff Siegel | Oct 05, 2023 In 2018, police officer Matt Cooper was shot in the face by a shoplifter at Walmart. Thankfully, Cooper survived, but he and his family had to rely on Social Security benefits to help take care of their medical bills and supplement their income since workersâ compensation wasnât enough to cover their already limited budget. But then it turned out that Social Security made a mistake and had been overpaying the Coopers. And when the mistake was discovered, the government demanded they repay $30,000 in addition to cutting monthly payments from $900 to $150. Not only is Social Security run by bureaucratic buffoons, but apparently theyâre also thugs who like to shake down injured cops. In any event, after reading about Officer Cooper, I started wondering how often mistakes like this happen and how they not only affect the folks who paid into the system and now rely on those benefits but also the economic sustainability of the entire program â which we already know is nearly nonexistent. As it is, Social Security is expected to run out of its excess reserves in 2034, which will result in it only being able to pay a portion of full benefits for retirees. Of course, weâve always known this was a giant Ponzi scheme, but I really got fired up this week after learning that mistakes similar to what happened with the Coopers are not uncommon. [$34,200 Retirement Handout Starts on OCTOBER 18.]( There isnât much time to waste... You could boost your retirement income by up to $34,200 a year simply by staking a claim on a new income stream hidden in the recent Inflation Reduction Act. Itâs 100% legal, but youâll need to move fast. The next payment is due on OCTOBER 18. [Discover the full details of this retirement income opportunity by clicking here.]( According to a report from the Social Security Administration's (SSA) inspector general, nearly $22 billion in overpayments were made last year. Meanwhile, 50% cuts to cost of living adjustments are now scheduled for baby boomers... You know, the folks who have been forced to put their own money into this Ponzi scheme for decades. And to add insult to injury, this is happening behind the backdrop of inflationary pressures that are making it harder and harder for retirees to put food on the table and keep the lights on. How the government keeps getting away with this kind of theft is beyond me, but one thing I do know is that those who are relying on Social Security to cover their expenses in retirement better look for a new way to generate income in its absence. One way to do that is through an income-generating mechanism thatâs used by some of the richest people in the world, including Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Warren Buffett. Itâs called a solar power royalty, and itâs basically a monthly royalty check you can earn from operational solar power plants all across the world. Theyâre far safer than traditional stocks, more reliable than Social Security, and the returns are significant. The No. 1 AI Stock of Our Era Using artificial intelligence (AI), this obscure company has made what could arguably be the most impactful medical breakthrough of our lifetime... Reducing the time frame for drug discovery by 70%... Slashing the costs of drugs by 80%... And even leading the charge with a novel cancer treatment that's swiftly advancing through clinical trials! This firm, with its innovative use of AI, is the catalyst of what Morgan Stanley says is a "$50 billion opportunity" for investors. Itâs precisely why big market players like Bill Gates, BlackRock, and Citigroup are heavily investing in this $5 stock. [Join them before itâs too late.]( In fact, with some of these projects, you can turn as little as $100 into $98,325. Good luck ever seeing that kind of return from Social Security. Truth is, I honestly donât believe Social Security will even exist beyond 2040. Something bad IS going to happen, and those who donât have a backup retirement plan are going to be screwed. So to help you get some of these solar power royalties for yourself, I put together [this short report]( that shows you how they work and how you can actually [start earning your own royalty checks in less than an hour](. And hereâs the best part⦠You donât even need a broker, and you donât have to pay a single penny in commissions or hidden fees to get started. Plus, the minimum investment is only $100. That's not bad when you consider starting with only $100 could eventually earn you nearly $100,000. And the proof is in the numbers, [which Iâve outlined]([here](. To a new way of life and a new generation of wealth...
