What "facts"? The whole program is based on the ability of the
government to borrow more money and raise taxes more.
There is no "trust funds" they spent every dime of that money and it
is unclear how they will ever pay it back.

Feel free to dispute the facts. That don't make you right.

That demonstrates that the federal government spent all of the surplus
and they promise to pay it back but they have not said how.


The don't have to "pay it back". It's a trust fund. Do you need me to
tell you to look it up?


It is simply part of the $16 trillion dollar debt and if they can't
pay it back, SS will not have the money.
You can call it a trust fund, a bond or simply an IOU but the fact is
there is no money there, only a promise that our children will pay for
our retirement. It is a promise that they did not make and that they
did not get to vote for.


The fact is that you're wrong. You act like the US economy is stagnent
or has negative growth. You act like this is some sort of crisis that
has to be fixed immediately or all hell will break lose. You're just a
paranoid dip**** if you actually believe that crap.
