Social Security is self sustaining in the long run.

The current baby-boom surge is temporary and the program will after a few short years return to surplus. In the mean time that is why the surplus treasury bonds were stashed away.

Junior just wants to default on the bonds.

re: Social security was intended to be a self-sustaining program. However, the architects structured it with inherent flaws. You are the one that talks about our social responsibility to the elderly. Fixing SS is fulfilling that responsibility.

Are you ever going to get it through your thick skull that I want it fixed? And not in 2009 like Bush (who would break it), but right now.
