Finally the truth!

The next round of statements on projected Social Security benefits will lay it out: "Social Security statement will warn about funds"

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Your next annual statement from the government estimating your Social Security retirement benefits will state in blunt language that those funds are in jeopardy.

As if today's workers weren't worried enough that Social Security will not be there when they need it, the Social Security Administration will tell them: "Action is needed soon to make sure that the system is sound when today's younger workers are ready for retirement."

It is irresponsible to keep passing this problem on to future generations. Something must be done before SS & Medicare swallow the entire federal budget.
