re: The only way to stem this kind of abuse is to tag contributions to a personal account and tag payout to that same account. Then when the personal account is emptied, payouts end...

and the retiree dies of starvation or exposure.

I think you have something there...

The reason why is that payouts aren't tagged to the contributions via a personal account.
Neither is my house insurance.
That is why Social Security is but one leg of the three-legged stool of retirement. It will not help you to ditch this benefit for a duplicate of another benefit you already have.
