No, it started with Roosevelt and the original SS Ponzi scheme. Subsequent changes helped fund deficits, but ultimately the program was doomed to fail from the beginning.

Well it's still going, retirees are receiving their monthly checks so I guess it'll keep going until ....???
I didn't deny it started with Roosevelt so I don't know where you got that from; also, Roosevelt only wanted it only as a temporary thing not something people could depend on for retirement purposes.

PS: SS is giving out money to those who’ve not paid into it so that’s where a lot of the deficit comes from.
