Re: ALL LINKS IN THIS SECTION SHOULD BE VIEWED AS SCAM SITES - A WARNING
Just because all of the previous ponzis have stopped paying, doesn't mean that they all will.
Think about how social security works, when you compare it to the definition, it's a ponzi too.

I'm not sure what you mean here.
Also, you were asking for an example of a long-paying ponzi, well, Social Security is a great example.
Social Security is different from a Ponzi scheme
- No outsize returns are promised by Social Security.
- Participation in Social Security is not voluntary.
- Ponzi schemes are insolvent; Social Security is not insolvent.
- Funds received into Social Security are invested in government-backed securities at a certain interest rate, thus generating returns. In a Ponzi scheme, there are no investments made.
- Ponzi schemes work only until people get wind of what is going on, at which point they inevitably collapse. Social Security's finances are plainly visible for all to see. Modest adjustments in tax rates, benefit formulas and the retirement age can ensure the program's viability for generations to come.
- Ponzi schemes are a criminal enterprise; Social Security is not.
I think you should be the guy who made that post
