God DAMN IT, this is irritating!

Social Security (i.e., the non-existent "Social Security Trust Fund") will NOT run out of money in three years. Or two years. Or ten years. IT HAS NO MONEY! It is an accounting fiction that has never actually existed, and was even formally abandoned by Lyndon ******* Johnson! It is a pile of figurative IOU's FROM the federal government TO the federal government. It has no substance. It is not real.

The shortfall between the amount paid into SS each year and paid out to recipients IS BORROWED. It is not recovered from the non-existent Trust Fund. When the pile of fictitious IOU's runs out...the shortfall will CONTINUE TO BE BORROWED, without interruption, because Seniors who draw SS tend to VOTE, and any politicians who even suggest that SS be brought back to financial sanity will be politically "killed" within moments.

Trump's suggestion that the FICA tax be suspended for a while will accelerate the depletion of the fictitious pile of IOU's by a couple months, or even a year. SO WHAT?

Nevertheless, SS will have to be "fixed" sometime in the foreseeable future, but that "fix" will involve raising the maximum amount subject to the tax, and possibly adjusting the COLA calculation for future years. Maybe the age for collecting SS will be raised further. BUT NOBODY'S SS CHECK WILL EVER BE REDUCED. It will not happen. It can not happen.

Politicians who try to scare old bastards (like me) with fears of The Other Guy taking away their SS should be SHOT! It is a blatant, knowing, intentional, nefarious LIE!

The idiots didn't get past the first line unfortunately.

The boomers voted themselves every benefit under the sun at other people's expense - because as majority they could. Yet a other example of how universal democracy is one dumb idea.

All of that is true.

And it is true because FDR was a lying asshole and social security was a BIG ******* LIE!!!

NEVER EVER EVER EVER elect ANYONE who has even the HINT of a socialist ideal in his/her brain.

Funny how SS will always run out of money but welfare will never.

OF COURSE Trump has no plan that would terminate SS much less healthcare for existing conditions. That would be suicide. Any of that would be hugely destructive and unpopular with millions of his own supporters. Biden like all democrats only lie about such things because they count on the gullibility of their base to believe anything and just repeat it, that and the fact that half of them don't know what Google even is.

So true. Lol

The Social Security Trust Fund was created for TWO reasons: To convince people to pay into it voluntarily, with the promise that they would get their money back, and To get around the unfortunate fact that CONGRESS HAS NO POWER TO CREATE A COMPULSORY RETIREMENT WITH TAXPAYER FUNDS.

So the fiction was that this wasn't really tax dollars, it was a separate "trust fund" that would be funded by a surtax and paid out separately from the General Fund. Hence, no taxpayer money.

Now that that fiction has gone the way of the dodobird, the Supreme Court keeps it because tens of millions of people rely on it.

The same fiction was how Medicare was created. Separate tax, "trust fund," and so on.

Incidentally, this is how the Democrats intend to implement "Single Payer" (socialized medicine). There will be a separate tax that goes into a "trust fund" from which the providers will be paid. So we have seen the same rodeo before. But this tax will not be part of the overall tax increase - even though your wallet will be substantially lightened by it. And since the Democrats control it, no one making under $50K will pay shit. Just another welfare program.
