NO,
The key word that sinks your comparison is investors.
Social Security is a tax plan, Participants are taxpayers, not investors.
Tax contributions are matched by private sector employers and supposedly the government.
Participation in a Ponzi scheme is voluntary, participation in Social Security is mandatory,
