The Congress has taken money out of the Social Security Trust several times. The first time that I can remember was during the Vietnam War, but they have raided it several other times since. They have never made any attempt to restore the funds after raiding the proverbial cookie jar. That is just not right.

Also around the turn of the century the Republicans tried to privatize the Trust, but fortunately failed in that attempt. This is an example of the Republicans long term strategy much like the abortion ban. Having always been the smaller political party they want to disrupt the status quo of the Democrats and then lie and blame the Democrats for the economic woes. They work steadily on the long game.
