I held off telling her that I have never believed that the social contract would be there for me, so I planned my way around that social program. On a previous episode she tried to argue that it is not a social program, its not socialism, and America is not nor will it ever be socialist. Her point, she paid for this in advance (she has been drawing for almost 20 years, so she has definitely gotten more then she gave, especially with most of her earning years being at the Dollar General), and that the government took all that money for other things or it would be over funded.

The government has borrowed over $2.8 trillion from the trust fund.
