    Let me ask you one question, when was the last time the government didn't pay it's bills? Social Security is not broke and will not run out of money. The US is a Currency Issuing Nation and can never run out of money. Please read our constitution, Art. 1, Sec. 8, Clause 5. This is blatant fear mongering, not to mention displays a complete lack of knowledge about how government spending works at the national level.

    Yet its clear that by the 2030s there will be insufficient funds. This doesnt inherently meant that you wont get beneifts, just that they would be deferred by x amount of time. Thing is this is more best case scenario, because as the boomer generation retires the amount of retires will dwarf that of the american workers. And in fact this isnt even just a domestic problem - china, Japan, UK, France - the whole world has this economic problem, which has never really existed before. So bringing up past history to define insolvency issues for the US isnt really relevant when were looking at a problem that has really never existed before (not to mention the plethora of economic indicators leading to even greater likelihood of insolvency issues - national debt, low liquidity ratios, increased likelihood of global military conflict between developed nations, domestic consumer issues ie low wage growth, limited housing, high cost of living) The average millennial will reach retirement in 2050 - if were having insolvency issues in 2035 that does not promote confidence that younger generations should rely on social security for retirement.

    Seems easy. A vote for Biden and something might hapen that helps in 2035. But porbally half the country can't pay their bill by then. Or the other guy, where things will be 10000% better right away.
