    Congress has just over a decade to fix Social Security before
    cash runs out

    Experts warned benefits could be cut, but will not run out
    entirely after the date

    . . .

    The PROBLEM isn't so much the SS program per-se.
    It's that congress/mil has been "borrowing" mass
    quantities of money from the fund for many decades.
    It doesn't show up as a "tax/budget increase" so
    it's been the perfect trick for politicians eager
    to stuff the old Pork Barrel.
