>>The money that was put away in SS was destined to earn interest<< Where did you get that idea? That was never the plan, from it's very inception. I suggest you educate yourself. ssa.gov The money you pay in taxes isn’t held in a personal account for you to use when you get benefits. We use your taxes to pay people who are getting benefits right now. Any unused money goes to the Social Security trust funds, not a personal account with your name on it.
