(62,325 posts)by the people, once again, the SS fund, during that same economic collapse, not only had zero problem paying out 100% of their financial obligations, they continued over the past several years, to show a surplus.
It's an amazing fiscal program, one of the most successful ever, which is of course why the financial predators whose own 'fiscal programs' have failed so miserably forcing the people to continually bail them out, want to get their greedy hands on it so they can continue to gamble on Wall St.
The false information they spread about SS will definitely be countered as it has been by anyone who is not part of the ponzi scheme known as Wall St. Sorry if it bothers you.
We are owed money, we the people. To prove that we have bonds from the US Treasury. We want that debt paid though SS has been able to and will continue to be, pay IT'S debts, it is past time to start increasing benefits for the people who own that fund.
The only false information being spread around is the notion that 'the SS fund is in trouble and it won't be there when you retire'. We've been hearing that from the day it was set up, haven't we? But now young people are far more educated about SS and it is becoming much more difficult for the criminals who raided it to hide what they are trying to do, avoid paying back what they owe.
Let me know when you get as upset over the failure of the Big Banks as you are over the success of SS.
