In a century and 11 years SS is one of the few things we've done right? Guess that goes with being proud of your country for the first time as an adult mindset.

Anyway how and what vehicle is used to 'invest' social security funds? Are they still in the lockbox or are they actually 'invested'? Where can I find a quarterly statement?

Yes, Dell, it's a great social program and one of the few things we've done right as far as social programs goes. It's a great success.

Well, that's just a stupid, baseless jackass statement. Try harder not to embarrass yourself.
