We were forced to pay into it. Those of us fortunate enough to live long enough had damn well better get every penny, including compound interest, back. BTW, I'm planning to live to 160, just to tick those asshats off.

Sweetheart, my husband and I (and many thousands in the area around) went through this. Not knowing was torture. But, after two weeks, we came home to an intact town. Wishing you the same miracle.
