A company is bankrupt when its liabilities exceed its assets AND no one will let it borrow money to cover that gap.

Any organization that has fewer assets than liabilities is technically insolvent. That's a fact. It can still have cashflows and it can still be salvaged, but it is insolvent. SS is heading down that same road. Today it is solvent. By 2042 it will be insolvent AND it will be cashflow negative by 2018. If it were a public company, would you invest in an outfit like that? I know I wouldn't.
