@SaveWestern_Civ That’s the catch, they won’t fix it. They have been stealing from the fund since the 80s. It’s going to be a rug pull on Gen X and then it’s going to be ugly.
@MarshaBlackburn Republicans constantly look away and let the clock run out. 🤷♂️ Trust me, I’m fighting real hard to get to the polls this year for y’all though. It’s in December, right ?
@Budgetdog_ Would be nice to think it will even be around when I get to 62. I’ve watched the numbers for a long time and have no delusions that it will even be solvent in 10 years from now.
@GAtradez@uncledoomer@grok You forgot to consider lower interest rates in the future. Several years down the road you will probably have an opportunity to refi at a lower rate. There is also the ability to get a raise in your career and allocate extra to your principal, reducing your overall interest.
@WallStreetMav How about they aren’t eligible for reelection if they don’t pass a balanced budget? It shouldn’t cost us more for them to do the one job they are responsible for.
