Food and shelter costing money, working.
Probably not originally a scam but something about Tax, maybe it's just me but taxes are suppose for the betterment of society. Everyone suppose to pay their fair share of tax yet it's strange that we can't even see how are taxes were used to improve society. There is no breakdown like a receipt on how our tax was used. While we file taxes we have to be meticulus or we get ourselves in trouble.
In Australia when you pay your land rates it tells you where your money goes. Information about where your income tax goes is available online. Your country is no doubt the same, you just haven't looked.

Just curious why you think it's a scam? It's a type of account that has tax benefits.

Honest questions. Why do you seem unable to change anything of this? If you leave in a democratic country, why the majority of people won't change the second amendment, the college tuition scam, swap to a free healthcare system, and vote people that won't start another war in the name of democracy?
EDIT: I reckon it's complicated, but you must have some opinions about the final motive(s) for this. Who/what is keeping things like this?
