Social Security

Editor, Times-Union:

Every time I hear someone on the news saying Social Security is putting out more dollars then they are taking in, I have to ask, where have you been?

Of course, there is less being paid into Social Security; every job that was outsourced and sent offshore/near shore caused that job position to stop paying into Social Security. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that eventually that is going to catch up with the system. Same with taxes. Every position lost causes less local, state, and national tax dollars.And to top it all off, dollars are being paid out of Social Security for things that the system was never designed for.
