Indeed. No one governs the government. There is no ‘lock box’. It gets spent. It’s up to subsequent generations to borrow and print money to pay for their retirees.

I will be more than happy to end it. Just give me my and my employer’s contributions starting from 1974 with interest as though I had invested in the stock market. No problem.

Accurate! But, you forgot to mention who squandered the money! And, where the money went!

Yep It is a Ponzi Scheme. Anybody else would go to jail for running such a scam.

Agreed. Just as health care and medical care are not rights, but services that have to be paid for.
