This shit is inexcusable. If you need money to pay for other programs or divisions of the government, raise taxes. Dont keep dipping into the cookie jar until its empty.
The program itself isn't sustainable. Nobody was taking money away from social security, it's just that the demographics and math from when the program was set up close to a century ago don't work today.

Only buys ~25 years and we're back in the same situation again.
