it would be nice if they had put the funds in a separate account, and only used it for ss. but no, the money got spent like it was limitless. ss is funded by what the govt wants to pay out, not by what you put in. why they ever billed it as pay now, get it back later, i don't know. they don't want to cut off ss after a certain income level to retirees, as they continue to treat it as being other than an entitlement. but it's not. they need to just quit the whole charade.
