It cannot be "well financed". The system is not designed to be financed. It is only designed to redistribute wealth.
A system with a real trust fund, a PERSONAL PRIVATE TRUST FUND, owned by the individual in his own name in a private institution, exactly like an IRA or Keogh plan, is the only way to finance a plan.
I agree w/ you 100,000%, I was just trying to translate what another poster was saying.
But absolutely, the Social Security Trust Fund is the greatest financial fraud in the history of mankind.
