Summary:
Economists talk about the Social Security “Trust Fund” and politicians sometimes even demagogue about their colleagues “robbing the trust fund.” But once you understand what the so-called trust fund really is, there is plenty more to be angry about than politicians supposedly robbing it for other government boondoggles.
Prepare to be very angry.
