“No. If you paid the Social Security portion of the debt, you are really taking money out of the bank and putting it right back into the piggy bank. It has to be reloaned. There is no other alternative. Until there is reform on it, there is no other alternative except to loan it out. When it gets loaned out, we spend every penny. We are not supposed to spend the Social Security money. We are not supposed to be robbing the piggy bank. But that is what happens. That piggy bank, that trust fund, is IOUs. It is money lent to the Federal Government again, and spent again.”
