My scheme

My business plan was to get people to invest in a plan that promised a future return for the rest of their lives. I am going to spend the current receipts to get stuff I want and fund the current payments by constantly getting new people to invest in the plan. Unfortunately, further research indicated that that this is called a Ponzi scheme and people have gone to jail for running them. My research also indicates that this is exactly the same as what Congress does with the Social Security program.
