Social Security Under the New Budget

The budget for the new fiscal year was just revealed in the last week and many are upset at the lack of news regarding Social Security. This absence of reassurance in the system goes a long way in adding credence to many popular outcries among advocates of restructuring the entire program from the ground up. These naysayers are adamant and loud in their belief that the money that they put in to Social Security is being so grossly mismanaged that they will not be seeing the benefits in retirement. An opportunity should have been taken in the budget reveal to show some transparency and dispel these fears and misattributions.
