It adds to the deficit when people are dipping in fraudulently or people are now living off of it linger than it's currently designed for. It needs to be reworked, and all frauds purged from its payroll.

congress stole money from the SS account years ago and have never started paying any of it back... I say dock their pay until every penny is repaid... that's what they would do to us

But one generation is paying for the next. If people are contributing less and less the program will not be funded and the gov would have to contribute more tax dollars to keep it going or it the program will eventually have to end. 🤔

Yeah can’t stand it when trump calls it a benefit. Republicans should just give theirs up if they agree with him saying this. Both parties rely on this after paying into it our whole lives.

Technically (on a trust-fund basis): No — Social Security is self-financed and cannot legally run a deficit. Economically (on a unified federal budget basis): Yes — because when Social Security redeems its bonds, the Treasury must borrow or use general revenues, which increases the federal deficit if the rest of the budget isn’t in surplus. ✅ In short: > Social Security doesn’t directly cause a deficit under its own accounting, but when benefits exceed payroll taxes, it effectively contributes to the overall federal deficit

actually in 60s it became taxable. in 70s it was put in general fund and became tax burden . In 80s they decided to give it to new seniors who didn't donate. All that's needed for solvency is put back in own account with interest

except it's not there, it's treated just like all the tax dollars collected and goes into the general fund - it was kept separate for many years until the Democrats decided a separate fund was not necessary and moved it to the general fund the once again everyone got screwed by the Democrats...
