Social Security is completely unsustainable. Recipients receive much more than they paid in”””

Have you included this item in your calculations?::

Any person who has paid into Social Security-along with the matching funds from their employer gets only a ‘death benefit of $255 when they die-—before they draw a single month of a soc sec check.

There are millions of people who die/get killed/ etc, before they turn 65. They get nothing.

It still doesn’t matter! THE PROGRAM SPENDS MORE THAN IT COLLECTS. It doesn’t matter if ALL the people die before receiving benefits, if the program is running in the red!
