Original Note:
"Social Security, which has run an annual deficit since 2010, uses bonds issued by the Treasury Department to pay out benefits. The government must borrow money from the public to repay those bonds, which contributes to the federal deficit and national debt." https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/02/08/fact-check-social-security-does-contribute-federal-deficit-debt/11185952002/
