I am always amused by mentions of the “Social Security Trust Fund”.

Here it is:

As I recall, it was LBJ that broke into the SS “lockbox” around 1964-65 to put the money into the General Fund. He needed the money to pay for his “Great Society” giveaways to blacks so they would be voting for Democrats for “a hundred years”.
