I thought social security was funded separately - you know through paycheck deductions

I know it is 'running out' but I am unaware we use regular taxes to fund it.

The US Treasury actually takes the excess funds and uses it to spend.

In it's place, there are IOU's, not even treasuries.

Yeah, the deficit would be even worse without that.

That is a bunch of crap. Social Security and Medicare come from the Social Security Trust fund and DO NOT affect any of the Federal deficit. People need to stop trying to pass this crap onto others.
