text: So you're telling me, if everyone stopped paying into social security, and everyone who had paid into social security wanted to withdraw all their contributions plus interest, that there would be more than sufficient funds to do so?
  I think not.
  I think you have to consider your sources of information...  www.ssa.gov????...
  that's like having the fox guard the chicken house...of course they are going to say everything is fine and dandy...
  wasn't it the government that thought the VA hospitals were doing fine as well until someone blew the whistle on them...
  I suppose you believe every word that comes out of every politician's mouth too...
  You can take as the gospel truth everything the government tells you but I'm going to take what they say with a grain of salt...why are they saying it...follow the  money...follow the power.
