		<description>One thing that you shouold never do is join any paid to click programs that you have to pay money for investments. They are scams and illegal. I am in many paid to read and paid to click programs that are free to join, and you do not have to spend one penny. It is optional to pay money for upgrades or advertisements, but no invesement in them but your time. These types of paid to click or paid to read programs make the legal ones look bad as well.</description>

		<description>[...] For those who may have missed it, 12 Daily Pro is a textbook example of a Ponzi scheme. The site is one of many that have surfaced over the years alleging that by spending 5 minutes a day surfing the internet, you can make a %12 daily return on your investment. The program works - for a little while - because those ridiculous returns are paid for using the money from the shmucks who just signed up. The cycle continues until the house of cards collapses. And the house of 12 Daily Pro is collapsing right now. [...]</description>

		<description>At first I agree with you.  Social security is definately not a perfect system and is in fact based on the Ponzi scheme - but with one difference: Social Security is backed by the magical &quot;good faith&quot; and trust in pieces of paper called bonds. Social security would quickly fall apart in exactly the same way as the Ponzi scheme if everyone lost faith in U.S. Treasury bonds.  However, since our entire economy as well as our currency is based upon that trust, I must support it or risk losing everything I have.  So in that sense modern-day social security is slightly different than a Ponzi scheme - there are actual &quot;investments&quot; that are being made on the part of social security.</description>
