.@LarryOConnor asked me what it means when folks say that Social Security will be "insolvent" if Congress doesn't act.

[John Hishta @jhishta]

If you've ever had a job, odds are you've paid into Social Security. So, it's your money, that you earned.

And THIS is why it's so critical that our leaders protect and strengthen Social Security.
