neue regel Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 "The trustees reported no such gains in the finances of Social Security, but no significant deterioration, either. The Social Security trust funds will have enough cash to pay full retirement and disability benefits until 2033, the report said." “To me, that’s the real loss of all this good news,” said Paul B. Ginsburg, president of the Washington-based Center for Studying Health System Change. “I don’t think anyone except the most extreme person, seeing these trends, thinks the [Medicare] cost problem has been solved.
