How many politicians does it take to solve a $22 trillion Social Security deficit? Established in 1940, when the average check was about $20 (about $440 in today’s dollars).

If no changes are made by 2033, we could be looking at a 23% cut across-the-board. Who is to blame and what can you do about it? Listen in and find out!
