They are supposed to invest the contributions that's how.
Look, 7% return doubles your money on 7 years. SS fund is supposed to be separate and invested.
When I was your age, we didn't run big deficits.
How are you blaming this shite on us?
The government stole the money and now they pay ss out of the general fund.

They by law are supposed to invest it in low return treasury bonds

The government steals your money but not in the case you’re referring to here (Social Security).
This mythical theft is how people justify, in their minds, SS running dry. The reality is that it is not sustainable and that what people contributed is less than what they are receiving.
