I’ve heard that one several times from lefty commentators (Hartmann for example) - the money is “invested” in T-bills. Question I want to ask him is - when the SSA cashes in the T-bills to get the money to pay SS recipients - where does the money come from?

I have occasionally listened to him too , that is another big lie too.

A T-bill is a legal document that requires the govmt repay a investor, individual, corporation, mutual fund back principle and interest.

But a SS IOU is from the government to itself. There is no legal requirement to pay SS recipients beyond current spending law. Congress can and has and may cut those payments, or tax them more.

If congress was to pass a law negating T-bills repayment the Federal government could be sued by the investor. But we have no recourse, the SCOTUS long ago decided recipients are not legally entitled to SS.

SS IOUs are just worthless paper saying the government owes itself money. But those elected will never admit that.

Everything you say is true. But it gets worse . . .

RE * [Co]lumnist Charles Krauthammer wrote a subsequent column questioning [the assertion that there is a $ 2.6 Trillion social security trust fund
“This claim is a breathtaking fraud. The pretense is that a flush trust fund will pay retirees for the next 26 years. Lovely, except for one thing: The Social Security trust fund is a fiction. … In other words, the Social Security trust fund contains—nothing.”

Well duh ! it should be no surprise that the congresses with Reagan, GHWB, Clinton, and GWB all spent these excess FICA taxes (SS/FICA started running deficits in 2009) .

The big lie was that the money was being put in a trust fund for our retirement . The bigger and bolder lie is that it is there now. In spite of being clearly exposed as a lie this week, as documented in the body of this post for all time (by me ) , both parties are still standing behind the big lie.

This is why Republicans lose me. I don't hear no candidates talking about this, nor is Palin(that I have seen). Just waiting for the Germany and China to bail us out and dictate the terms.

I don’t think there’s a bailout scheduled.

. . . Only a more emphatic push of an even bigger lever on an even bigger toilet.

On June 9, 2011, President Obama issued a sweeping executive order for a White House Rural Council that purports to exert broad municpal powers over the food, fiber, and energy production of Rural American. Where's the Line, America to how much power the president can amass by executive order?

Chilling . . . Another over the top power grab by Executive Order

Executive Order # 13575: The theft of rural and agricultural lands for UN Agenda 21

Excerpt:

* * * This council can be viewed as nothing less than the establishment of a domestic terrorism group which will orchestrate the coming assault on private agricultural property owners in an effort to force them off their land and out of production. There was an effort during the Reagan presidency to launch a similar assault on individual owners of agricultural land which would have displaced more than 2 million people, handing their land over to others who were more amenable to the government and UN control. * * *

INCREDIBLE.

However, the goals is . . .

NO private property of any kind . . .

except, of course, for the pigs who are more equal than other pigs.

Perhaps they are starting with agricultural land to make engineering the famines all the easier and quicker.

Remember that they plan to turn most of the land back to their goddess . . . mother nature.

. . . and to house the serfs and slaves in Soviet style concrete hives . . . errr . . . row on row of thrilling public housing tiny little boxes.

Even Orwell was an optimist compared to these jerks from hell.

The Obamatrons Big Lie continues.

Someone at DU asks the question, about their own Democrats big lie about SS not adding to deficit:
DU post with comments: 'If social security has it's own trust fund and does not affect our deficit, why would not raising'

The 14 trillion dollar debt figure comes from $ 11 T publicly held (or Federal reserve) treasury notes and 3 trillion dollars IOUs from treasury held by Social Security. So to make SS payments the IOU # $3T goes down and the public debt number $11T goes up, requiring a debt limit increase to pay it. The second number is real debt to individuals, companies, mutual funds, pensions, except the Federal reserve and the SS IOUs to itself.

As a funny aside, Ron Paul suggested the US government should default on it's debt to the Federal Reserve since we will never pay back any any of the principle we owe anyway and the FR is part of the government in a sense, another subject they don't want discussed. He has a way of hitting the nerve sometimes.

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the DHS’ own internal documents list predominantly white conservative groups as the most likely terrorists, such as Ron Paul supporters, gun owners, gold bullion enthusiasts, and a myriad of other comparatively banal political interests that are largely the domain of white middle class Americans.

Speaking of Ron Paul...
