"In fact, Social Security is not insurance. It merely seizes income from working Americans and dispenses it to retirees, with a vague (but legally unenforceable) assurance that younger Americans will someday get to reach into the pockets of their kids and grand-kids. We shouldn’t hide that fact with euphemisms. “Contributions” should be called “taxes.” “Benefits” should be called “handouts.” Social Security shouldn’t be described as “social insurance” but as welfare."

Inode,
But my guess is Congress will have to act.
Why should Congress have to act? Both parties have expanded deficit spending like there's no tomorrow and no obligation to ever pay back the debt.
