The Social Security so-called "trust fund" is a myth!!! It is a giant ponzy scheme run by the government. Benefits being paid today come from current tax payers and government borrowing. The government (Congress) has been using excess Social Security taxes to fund other parts of their excessive government spending and replaced those funds with worthless government IOUs (special bonds) that the government cannot repay. Government currently owes the Social Security Trust Fund nearly $3 TRILLION and they keep borrowing the excess from the fund every year to help finance their excessive spending on the military (and wars), corporate welfare, foreign aid, education, health care and the ever increasing interest on all the debt the government has incurred.razoo » 21 Apr 2023, 6:26 am » wrote: ↑ Former President Bush claimed the trust fund is just a bunch of government IOUs and therefore worthless. Is this true?
The trust fund does just contain IOUs, but they’re not worthless. If they are, someone should tell that to the very smart and very rich people, and the central banks of Japan, China, and many other countries that hold a large share of their assets in U.S. government bonds. When the trust fund was created in 1935, the law stipulated that any excess revenues coming into the Social Security system must be used to purchase federal government bonds. (At the time, the stock market had just lost over 75% of its value and was understood to be unsafe.)
Federal bonds are absolutely safe; the government of the United States has never defaulted on any bond obligation.
Former President Bush appeared to be ready to break this tradition. He appeared to want the Treasury to “selectively default” on the bonds in the Social Security trust fund. He obviously felt the United States doesn’t have to meet its obligation to the working people of America the way it meets its obligations to ultra-wealthy bondholders.
His suggestion that the U.S. government might not be willing to repay its debt obligations was remarkable and for a time completely disrupted global financial markets."
Then Carter and Reagan raised the payroll taxes to supposedly "fix" the problem but just continued to spend the funds on more government spending. Social Security taxes are really a 12.2% tax on middle and poor working class citizens because of the income cap.Warcok » 21 Apr 2023, 8:42 am » wrote: ↑ Dimocrats destroyed Social Security when they raided it to fund their Vietnam war.

I get tired of idiots that claim the bottom 40% of the working class pay no income taxes when the payroll tax in essence is just another revenue source for excessive government spending.
