One could make the same argument that Social Security is supposed to be

just that:
"professionally managed and, barring catastrophe, there should be enough

to
pay the promised benefits." But even that is no longer sacrosanct.

The only real solution to all of this is for people to take charge of

their
own retirement via their own personal accounts that they themselves

manage.
When you delegate this responsibility to some other party you do so at

your own risk.


The term is "beholden".

When you demand the taxpayers bail you out of your stupid and adolescent
decisions, the term is "parasite".
