If we only had the monies kept seperately we'd have only 30% of the debt we do now!

That doesn't even make any remotely logical sense.

Oh, wait! I think you thought I meant that the funds are physically kept separately. LOL - no. That's not what I am saying when I say the "funds are kept separately". I am talking about normal accounting procedures. Not your scenario of a man cashing your check, and putting money into little separate piles .... Seriously? That's how you think? You think that people (employers) should be required to write a separate check for each separate Med and SS account? LOL!

Dell, I want you to do something really brave: go read Wikipedia, regarding "Social Security - United States"
