Will we have social security?

      i hear kids my age all the time saying "we wont get a nickel from social security" but i believe that thats wrong because social security is one of the most popular government programs in the united states of america. As long as there are people around to vote and voice there option social security wont just go away. See the social security is funded by the FICA taxes you pay every time on your pay check so as long as people are working money will be put back into the social security. Plus in current law the social security account could run dry and you would still get most of your benefits. i think what got everyone so upset about is when we dipped into the trust fund. The trust fund is made when all the FICA taxes are collected and the social security is payed and there is left over money that left over money is put into a trust fund. so when we had to go to the trust fund people stared the rumor that our generation will not have social security. But government knows that social security is to important to just desolate it.
