But not to worry, there are still those who point out that the fund is fully vested until 2038, or what other ridiculous date they come up with.

Right, and that was thirty years ago. I wonder how many of those who voted in that poll are receiving their SS checks now?

Have you noticed yet that the closer we get to the supposed "Date of Expiration" the further away it gets?

But, alas, I think it will probably go away regardless of whether it is really insolvent or not. And to my mind; That is a sad thing.
