You’ve bought into the lie. Social Security isn’t broke. The general fund is. Since 1933, congress has borrowed every dime from SS that wasn’t needed for the general fund. That amounts to trillions. Not one dime of the primary debt has been paid. When you hear that the biggest debt holder for the US is the private sector, that’s stupid double-talk for Social Security. If the US starts paying the actual debt, SS would have enough to last for a century or more. China may be the greatest foreign debt holder, but SS is the overall greatest holder of US debt. The problem is, that SS isn’t broken, the U.S. is. They don’t have the funds to pay SS and their foreign debts. So they created a fantasy of broken SS, as a way of forgiving their own debt. Keep this in mind, when speaking of SS having no money, officially they always use the wording “The General Fund,” not money “owed” them. The General fund is broke, the U.S., is broke, Social Security is not. The greatest amount of the 36+ trillion owed by the U.S. is owed to the American citizen, by way of Social Security. Stop falling for the lies!
