Wow, that’s so bad. But now I’m confused. Could you tell me where that surplus is kept? My history book said that President Johnson moved SS into the General Fund and that there is no (nor has there ever been) a SS Trust Fund. I’m all for holding our elected reps responsible for what they do, but I’m trying to not let my political views twist reality. The thing is that I have been reading for years from the Feds own releases that with the Boomers generation we have moved into a deficit (more going out then in), so clear that up for me and tell me how this post is true.

You’re intentionally splitting a hair that doesn’t need splitting. This is spending money that hasn’t been collected yet, but in the future.
