Scott Coulter, a former high-ranking executive at the Social Security Administration, proposed using a portion of the $2.7 trillion trust fund to invest in a convertible Treasury note. This proposal aimed to leverage the stock market instead of relying solely on US debt to enhance Social Security's funds. Despite its potential benefits, the plan was rejected by the new Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano without clear reasons; current forecasts now expect Social Security to run out of funds by 2032.
