Since 1983 Social Security received more in revenue than it paid out. It actually had a 2.5 trillion dollar surplus. However over several years politicians have been drawing out of the social security fund to pay for other pet projects leaving IOUs in the form of treasury bonds.

In fact, Ron Paul says, Social Security checks should be nearly double the amount seniors are now receiving if it were not for political deception: see more here:
