I get it, I need it, I worked for it, without it,I’m F@@##@cked.

You never hear about welfare running out of money.
Eventually, someone is going to get the short end of the stick. The politicians will kick the can down the road as long as they can, but the reckoning will eventually come.
It never should have been set up to put money where congress could spend it. It should have been deposited into an account owned by the contributor from day one. But then it wouldn’t exactly be a government program, which was the main goal all along.

Let there be no mistake: what you “get” is somebody else’s money who needs it and worked for it, and quite possibly somebody’s work who hasn’t been born yet.
