That is what Bernie said
You're disputing it's a promise made to seniors and unfortunates
who've lost parents? That's what Stalin said. (yeah, I'm kidding)
It is a promise but it is an unfunded promise. The Trust Fund is just
a line item on the national debt.
And, how exactly would you prefer it to be funded? Perhaps in gold
bullion? Or, in a 100% risk free account... like perhaps one
guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the US? Oh yeah, you're
full of it.
