Thus, using budget "surplus" to shore-up the SS Trust Fund it's like taking money out of the left pocket and putting it back into the left pocket.

Not necessarily. It could mean that we begin de-linking Social Security funds from the rest of the general budget. In other words, account for both of them separately, and let each of them stand on its own. And that is a step in the right direction, IMO.
