I notice on my most recent social security statement claims that by 2040 the fund will be exhausted and that incoming monies will only be able to pay 74c on the dollar to beneficiaries.

Although I think this is on every statement from the past, and I also think the year keeps getting stepped forward.

That having been said, when a government agency starts asterisking stuff and noting that they arent going to be paying as well in the future, chances are somewhere in the future they arent going to be paying as well. Otherwise, why go to the trouble of rousing the rabble?
