The average SS check is around $1700 a month. Multiply that by the seniors deaths and you will get a pile of money that the Social Security trust fund.... has saved! There is your answer!

The Social Security “trust fund” is here:

At the end of the day it cannot be “solvent” or “insolvent” any more than Unicorns can be animals or minerals.

The government can print as much money as they want to pay whatever they want.

All the rest is empty rhetoric.
