Uh are you fucking dull? It’s very true that we’re going to have a surging elder population and a shrinking working age population and we can expect to receive back far less than what we paid in, and will receive less in benefits. Not to mention people live WAY beyond 65 today and fewer kids are being born. The system has a lot of problems.

yes--the article is designed to rile conturds up. the same articles have been published every few years usually in a "get out the vote" thing to "rein in govt spending" etc. Perhaps the payouts will be less than anticipated, but SS isn't going anywhere and will be around.

no but the writer of the article--from 2017 ahead of elections-- probably is.

Also, odd case, he seems to be pushing retirement and investment planning as a consequence of this alleged shortfall to SS. On the Motley Fool? Who would have thought!

your just being stupid now. as I said, ive already pwned you.

This is the history--every so often the allocations and funding for SS is modified such that the program remains solvent.

(Also, fwiw and as an interesting little bit of cognitive dissonance for you--you know where a lot of the additional SS funding comes from? blacks and Mexicans. they die before they get to claim much of it. Or they pay in for years but cant claim it as illegals. A shocker, isn't it.)

There will *always* be SS as long as people are paying into it. It just means it'll pay about ~75% of the benefits of what it might be projected, and it might drop if there are more retirees and fewer workers.

Exactly. It's the literal definition of a Ponzi scheme--senior investors are paid from the contributions of junior investors.

Martin Shkreli did the same thing (frankly, not even as bad), and he's in prison for it.
