The amount that you pay into it goes directly to the current beneficiaries (i.e., retirees). This works well as long as you have stable age demographics, which we do not. Because of an aging of the population, the share of retirees is growing relative to the share of people paying into it, making the program unsustainable under current tax rates ($ inflows) and benefits ($ outflows).
Also SSI disability abuse, which has really spiked in the past few decades.

Absolutely ought to reign it in and we should start with the friggin gang of doctors and lawyers convincing people they are disabled when that person never even knew there was such a thing as SSI. Those con men are the criminals....the recipients are just lazy slugs but those doctors and lawyers go out of their way to attract hoardes of lazy slugs who can be convinced that they are disabled when the thought never entered their mind. Most of those people are not overly bright, once a doctor or a lawyer or, unsually, both, tell them they are disabled they are for the rest of their lives...very few will ever recover from one exposure of a con man telling them they are disabled. Those doctors and lawyers ought to be in jail and drug dealers lose and plying their trade....
