Bush was told by Greenspan and Paul O'Neil early in his term that this would happen if Social Security wasn't fixed. He elected instead to give massive tax rebates to increase his popularly, then after 9/11 to start wars we couldn't afford. End the wars, reduce the tax cuts and repay the Social Security fund, and this problem goes away. I suspect, however, that you would not agree with those solutions. You want to stop paying Social Security to the elderly, in spite of the fact they they paid into it and are promised the benefits.
