As explained in another posting, there is a lot of money in SSI bonds.
Those bonds are what will allow SSI to be paid out along with things like
moving up the retirement age.  To not pay off those bonds is to default.  Is
that what you expect the country to do?  If that happens we have more
problems than seniors starving because the SSI checks stopped.  It could
well happen but not because of SSI but because of mismanagement by
Republican movement conservatives such as Grover Norquist.
