I watched the claims about names of 300 year olds being on the list. It was **** on its face. When did a 300 year old get a SS number, when the program is less than a hundred years old? The claims have been debunked as the **** they were on their face. The "problem" that leads to the "solution" is "manufactured" and "fake."
When they start using fake problems to cover for their "solution" to the fake problems, your *** is being greased, son. And you ought to be able to discern that.
Here's a snippet from an AP article that has a **** of a lot more credibility than the campfire stories Trump And Elon were raising hairs on our necks with:
You want to notice that the issue was already being handled, and you want to notice that most of the waste (LESS THAN 1%) was overpayments to living people that are already being clawed back. I can testify to that, as I was overpaid 3k the first year I claimed benefits and had to pay it back.
When your fact check includes inventing things to refute him with - like *** cannot use computers, - he starts to sound pretty unimpeachable, to me.
I know the difference between **** and shinola - and I do not STOP knowing the difference just because I voted for the people slinging the ****.

The SS Trust fund only makes about $70 million in interest on those securities, ( 2.3% average) ,where do you think the other $1.5 trillion comes from?Cannonpointer » 32 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ You are the one displaying ignorance of the matter.
The SSA sells bonds to cover expenses. Those bonds are the property of the people who bought them and entrusted them to SSA.
If the SSA uses current payments to cover expenses, it does so because money is FINGIBLE - not because money is unavailable. The SSA holds bonds to cover its payouts.

Sure, your payroll taxes are deposited into those government bonds and then the majority of those funds are paid out the next month to someone actually receiving SS.
Bottom line, it's not the same dollar.
The trust fund is solvent through 2035 with no action taken, and would then be forced to pay only 83% of benefits - if no remediation occurs. And this is in spite of a criminally low return that doesn't even pace inflation. Workers should be asking why the **** SS bonds receive a lower return than other investment bonds. nThere's your **** skunk - not the 300 year old ghost recipients that do not exist and are pure campfire fiction invented by Trump and Elon.Fuelman » 19 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ The SS Trust fund only makes about $70 million in interest on those securities, ( 2.3% average) ,where do you think the other $1.5 trillion comes from?

I don't look at my retirement accounts the same way as SS cause they are two entirely different things. SS is a welfare program and the formula for benefits proves it. No such formula is applied to our retirement accounts.Cannonpointer » Today, 2:04 pm » wrote: ↑ The trust fund is solvent through 2035 with no action taken, and would then be forced to pay only 83% of benefits - if no remediation occurs.

Throughout the boomer years, SS took in WAY more than it paid out. The boomers retiring reversed that - which is expected. Now it is paying out - from its bonds - more than it is taking in.
You understand this process perfectly as applied to your other retirement savings. Why is it difficult to understand it with SS?
Even if you were right that current workers are funding the retirement of yesterday's workers, the manner in which you present that information is extremely strange. If it were true, it would be an outrage. Where the **** did the money go? This would be the crime of the century. Where did those trillions of dollars go?
And for the record, income FROM the bonds is not what retirees were told to count on. It is the bonds themselves.

Maybe you have never heard of the "pay as you go" system, would surprise the **** out of me!
+2Social Security is called a "pay-as-you-go" program because current workers' payroll taxes directly fund benefits for current retirees, rather than being saved or invested to fund future payments. Here's a more detailed explanation:Current Workers Fund Current Beneficiaries:The core principle of a pay-as-you-go system is that the taxes collected from today's workers (employers and employees) are used to pay the benefits to today's retirees and beneficiaries. No Savings or Investment:Unlike a fully funded pension plan, Social Security doesn't accumulate a large reserve fund or invest the money collected from taxes. Direct Transfer of Funds:The money collected from payroll taxes is immediately used to pay out benefits, creating a direct transfer of funds from current workers to current beneficiaries.
Fact or fiction, you decide.
Campfire stories do not merit explanations. It's **** from the ground up.Fuelman » Today, 3:14 pm » wrote: ↑ As far as the 300 year old being on the SS books, why the hell is that name there in the first place? Did some idiot think it was a good idea to go back 200 years and give some dead guy a SS number? Yes, there were idiots who thought all these people were getting checks, bless their hearts! The more important point is the antiquated data base, that's what I took away from it.
