How To Save Social Security

At some point, Congress will need to save Social Security, or not. According to the 2025 Trustees Report, the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) trust fund will become insolvent by 2033. The combined OASI and Disability Insurance (DI) funds will suffer that same fate in 2034. The truly frightening thing is that, according to the same report, if Congress does nothing, the situation will become catastrophic. "At that time (2034), there would be sufficient income coming in to pay 81 percent of scheduled benefits."
