You can't possibly be this stupid.

This is precisely what I mean by your repeated demonstration of your "willful ignorance". We have discussed Social Security, how it works, the trust fund, etc. repeatedly on this board, and you've participated.

It's apparent you don't pay attention in the least to the real world, and you haven't the foggiest notion how Social Security or this country's budget works, let alone what the debt ceiling is and how we borrow and finance our country.

You seriously do not have a clue about these most basic things in our country. Things that have been all over the news the past 4-8 years.

Think really hard, and think of the concept of "cash flow". Good luck with it.
