“The Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) Trust Fund will be able to pay 100 percent of total scheduled benefits until 2033.. At that time, the fund’s reserves will become depleted and continuing program income [payroll tax] will be sufficient to pay 77 percent of total scheduled benefits,” according to the 2025 Social Security Trust Report.

Here’s the ceasefire deal, Vladimir. It’s the best deal you’re going to get:
We give Kyiv the Iron Dome and NATO will enforce a no-fly zone to prevent your glide bombs, drones, and hypersonic missiles from killing Ukrainian civilians and infrastructure.
UK, France, and Germany will provide peacekeeping troops to guard a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) along the current battle line to ensure security for Ukraine.
Europe will spend 5% of GDP on defense, outspending Russia in a war of attrition.
