    A garbage article polluting the information stream.

    For example, the article notes that:
    “In its latest annual report, the Social Security board of trustees reported that the federal government’s total revenue from Social Security taxes in 2010—$544.8 billion—was not enough to cover Social Security’s total benefit payments—$577.4 billion.”

    The same annual report notes that trust fund assets grew by $92.2 billion in 2010, but the garbage article is content to leave readers with the impression that Social Security is already running a deficit.

    And what’s the point of excluding government and part-time workers when counting the number of people contributing, but including them when counting benefit recipients?

    Garbage. Have some standards, please.

    Probably including SSI Disability payments (widely gamed/abused).
