Yes, the government legally requires itself to spend the money instead of saving it and so there is no actual trust fund. that was clever of them
Do you have any clue how many trust funds, retirement plans, pension funds, IRA's, 401K's, 403B's, etc., etc.,
have all or part of their money invested in US treasuries?
No, you probably don't because you're retarded.
SS is NOT invested in US treasuries. The Trust fund holds only "intragovernmental IOUs".. There IS a difference.
OK, NYDumbass, you are on ignore, you know that. Obviously given the number of responses I see where others respond to you responding directly to me, you are responding to me very frequently. If you want to be paroled in April, cut the shit. And obviously you want to engage in conversation with me. So when you do get paroled, cut the crap of making every post about calling me a Republican. you agree with them WAY more than I do, it's not close
flacaltenn, as for SS, you're totally right, loaning yourself money is not an asset, government can't loan itself money and call it a "trust fund," it's just stupid.
The government does not loan itself money because the Trust Fund doesn't belong to the government.
Why is that so hard for you idiots to understand?
Wrong in the trillion column
The government can't touch SS funds except to borrow them. SS funds are owned by the contributors and current and future eligible recipients.
