RE: Spend our "surplus" on war?


>From: Lisa Furia

>>>>>Do we value spending millions of dollars to kill innocents at the expense of our futures? What values should we convey to Congress about this use of Social Security funds?

No comment about the 'morality' aspect of your post. But any SS 'excess' that is spent will be 'borrowed' from the SSTF, gov't bonds will be issued, and interest will be paid. We've been doing this successfully for over 15 years. This situation is really no different.
