SS isn't in trouble. That's just something that people who want to privatize it say. If nothing is done, it's fine until 2037, and after that, it can pay out at 78% of what it should. If nothing at all is ever done. A few small tweaks (raising the cap works very well) and that 78% payout is readily fixed, as has been done in the past.
