I have been paying into it for at least 17years now and I am no where near retiring age!

That's what's happening here, but they're running out of money to "borrow". And if you read through this board, many want the government to take the money away from the military to cover this. Though in the same breath they want soldiers to make MORE money........
You're supposed to be happy knowing your taxes are currently going towards taking care of those who on social security now - like most taxes, it's basically forced donating
