Yes, the raiding of the "trust fund" has accelerated its demise. Yes, both parties have done it and in neither case should it have been done. But it was doomed to failure the moment it was implemented, though it would not have failed yet.

Social Security sucks. You are forced into a "retirement" program that doesn't even give you the principal back, let alone any compounded interest, and then your already taxed "contributions" are taxed again.

Work on your reading comprehension next time before you blast off.

LOL. My reading comprehension is just fine, there is no need for you EVER to say anything about parties. It is clear to Helen Keller what party line you tout (er tote). Joey how would you replace Social Security? Would you make it self directed so the Wall Street ****ing whores could rape and pillage us more? Would you let everyone fend for themselves in which case how would you handle the MILLIONS that depend of SS for sustenance?
