But the trust fund was publicized as having money stored up in it.

I don't recall anyone ever telling me that. Anyone who followed the

During the presidential debate, Vice President Gore told the nation, "I will keep Social Security in a lockbox, and that pays down the national debt."

You really have a better memory than that.
